"WOMEN WORKERS IN SEVEN PROFESSIONS" by Edith J. Morley is a survey and collection of essays that examines the economic conditions and career prospects of women in various professional fields, written during the early 20th century. The work highlights the challenges and advancements faced by women in seven different professions, including teaching and nursing, shedding light on their societal contributions and the economic barriers they encounter. The opening of this work presents a preface that sets the stage for a critical exploration of women's economic subjection and their fight for independence. Morley reflects on the historical context of women's work and the significance of the Fabian Women's Group, which aimed to provide a platform for women's voices in these discussions. She outlines the collaborative effort involved in compiling firsthand experiences from women professionals, emphasizing the importance of their perspectives in understanding the complexities of their economic situations. Moreover, Morley expresses the hope that this compilation will not only inspire young women contemplating their careers but also raise awareness among the broader public regarding the vital roles women play in these professions.
