This book is a great economic exploration of feminism in the modern age! It makes a global analysis of how various areas of women's oppression (ie. femicide, wage gaps, educational disparities) influence their economic contributions, whilst also suggesting some possible solutions. An excellent contemporary feminist text! (Also, there is a wonderful bibliography at the back of the book full of studies and sources for further exploration of the topics covered.)
Moderate: Domestic abuse, Hate crime, Misogyny, Rape, Sexual violence, Trafficking, and Abortion
All of these topics are discussed in an informational way. There is some mention of specific violence against women, but it's not super graphic from my recollections.
