description: Winnie Williams has traveled to more than forty countries, observing and learning how cultural traditions, religion, politics, social structures, and the patriarchal philosophy of male domination have forced many women to accept their inferior status as the norm. These compelling firsthand experiences - about women in Australia, Alaska, Ecuador, Guatemala, Kosovo, Macedonia, and Russia - have motivated the author to become an advocate for women's justice worldwide, and to bring awareness to the often grim plight of women. Her great hope is that women will become educated, informed about their civil rights, and can look forward to a better way of life in their society.
