Gathering together stories from all corners of the world, this is an inspiring celebration of private heroisms and public triumphs, and a brilliant, necessary manifesto for women everywhere. Every day, all around the world, women are reinventing what it means to be female in cultures where power, privilege or basic freedoms are all too often equated with being male. Caroline Criado-Perez introduces us to the first woman to cross the Antarctic alone, a female fighter pilot in Afghanistan, a climate change activist who scaled new heights, a Chilean revolutionary turned politician, the Russian punks who rocked out against Putin, and the Iranian journalist who dared to uncover her hair.
