In Defence of Witches: Why Women Are Still on Trial by Mona Chollet

informative reflective slow-paced

4.0

 In Defence of Witches looked at the reasons women were charged with witchcraft in centuries past, and explored how those very same issues - beauty, age, childlessness, independence, sexuality- are used to judge and attack women today. The author made academic studies accessible to a general audience. Thought provoking and infuriating.
