Professor James Tooley questions what feminism has done for women. In his latest book, The Mis-education of Women, Professor Tooley asserts that feminism has not delivered the goods and, by raising expectations, done women a disservice. He believes working women are desperately unhappy and has called this state the Bridget Jones Syndrome.
Has feminist education created the Bridget Jones generation?
