Drawing on extensive historical and cross-cultural research, Eleanor Burke Leacock shows that claims of male superiority are based on carefully constructed myths with no factual historical basis. She also documents numerous historical examples of egalitarian gender relations.\nEleanor Burke Leacock (1922–1987) was well-known for her ethnographic work among primitive societies, and her research is still a formative influence among feminist anthropologists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Haymarket Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45113390465077,"sku":"ByrdShop_1931859574","price":228.03,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781931859578_9b404f60-e93b-41ab-bf8f-383973c4411f.jpg?v=1781329235","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/myths-of-male-dominance-collected-articles-on-women-crossculturally-9781931859578","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
