This small guide is a useful beginner’s guide to the current state of the world on women’s rights issues. It is written from a perspective of anti-poverty for women. It promotes human rights and political awareness on diverse issues that relate to women all over the world. For example, a chapter on religious influences looks at racist attitudes in the world. The issues of AIDS and violence against women are also outlined and these are interconnected with the idea of cultural relativism.
The layout includes text-boxes which enable easier reading and the content is potentially a great resource for secondary schools and further education in Scotland. It is also accessible for the general reader.
