Rowbotham is one of Britain's most important, if unshowy, feminist thinkers, and a key figure of the second wave.

- Melissa Benn, Guardian

Sheila's early writing paved the way for feminist thought and scholarship in Britain.

- Lynne Segal,

A groundbreaking contribution to debates on women's oppression and consciousness, and the connections between socialism and feminism. Examining feminist consciousness from various vantage points - social, sexual, cultural and economic - Sheila Rowbotham identifies the social conditions under which it developed, showing how the roles women take on within the capitalist economy have shaped ideas about family and sexuality.
