According to him, all British institutions were “corrupted at the root by pecuniary interest” – and idealism, integrity and any piecemeal attempts at political reform were futile in the face of the gross injustice built into the Empire’s economic system.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBegun in 1924 – the year of the British Labour Party’s first period of office under Ramsay MacDonald (who hailed it as “the world’s most important book since the Bible”) – and first published in 1928, The Intelligent Woman’s Guide draws on Shaw’s decades of activism and remains a brilliant, thoughtprovoking classic of political propaganda.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57490092065141,"sku":"9781847493330","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781847493330.jpg?v=1786441985","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/intelligent-womans-guide","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
