{"product_id":"9780702333828","title":"Shevolution: Celebrating Girl Power Throughout History by Petra Braun","description":"Everyone alive on the planet today can trace their ancestry      back to just one woman. But who would she have been? What      would her life have been like? And what has happened since for her      billions of descendants?      In an all-encompassing whistlestop tour through prehistory,      history, and on to the future,      Shevolution spans an extraordinary 200,000      years, tracing the life of the woman scientists call 'Mitochondrial      Eve' and following the journeys of the female pioneers who have      shaped us all.         Around the world, girls and women - who have ruled kingdoms,      governed empires and led pirates - have had to fight to      gain, and keep, basic human rights even into the 21st century.         Shevolution includes their stories, giving voice to the      unsung sheroes of our day.         Travel with us through early human history, first societies, ancient      cultures around the world, the rise (and fall) of empires,      featuring female leaders, the suffrage movement, the women's rights      movement, intersectionality and ... the fight to get pockets      back!      This beautifully illustrated book takes you on      a tour through women's history around the world, featuring snapshots      of what life might have been like for our theoretical common      ancestor 200,000 years ago and for women and girls at key moments      since.         Did you know?            Recent ethnographic research proves that women (and children!)      weren't just gatherers in hunt-gatherer societies.               Did you know?            New Zealand was the first country to give women the right to      vote in 1893.               A captivating and unique approach to non fiction, this is an important      read for all children who want to understand      the Shevolution of society.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55412238352757,"sku":"9780702333828","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9780702333828.jpg?v=1748094095","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9780702333828","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
