Synopsis
A feminist study of language and its rules argues that men have shaped it in order to instill their own prejudices and viewpoints on society, and shows how male-slanted language affects all women's lives

From the Back Cover
One of the great classics of the women's movement, 'Man made language' opened our eyes to the myriad ways in which the rules and uses of language promote a male, and so inherently partial, view of the world.
Spender also argues that since language is crucial to human-ness, it is through the patriarchal language that much of women's subordination is structured and maintained.
Often imitated, never replaced, 'Man Made Language' has become a cornerstone of modern feminist thought.
'A clever, lively and entertaining book. I have to admit she has a point.'
PHILIP HOWARD, 'The Times'
