“Women and Economic Evolution: or, The Effects of Industrial Changes upon the Status of Women” by Theresa Schmid McMahon is a scholarly work written in the early 20th century. The book examines the historical and sociological impacts of industrial evolution on women's roles and statuses throughout society. It likely explores themes of women's economic participation, the shifting dynamics of gender roles, and how these changes have influenced societal structures. The opening of the text introduces the crucial premise that the status of women has been shaped significantly by economic and industrial transformations. McMahon discusses various theories regarding gender hierarchy, notably contrasting the traditionally accepted androcentric perspective with the emerging gynaecocentric view that highlights the role of women in the development of early industries. She sets the stage for a deeper analysis of how industrial shifts have not only contributed to women's subordination but also, in some contexts, offered opportunities for economic independence and social mobility as industries evolved.
