Jean-Antoine-Nicolas de Caritat, Marquis de Condorcet's 'The First Essay on the Political Rights of Women' is a groundbreaking work that challenges the societal norms of the 18th century by advocating for the political rights of women.

A revised translation of Condorcet's view of progress across history and his prophetic writings on women, slavery, freedom and revolution.

This book shows that he was not so foolish, nor so incomprehensible, as even sympathetic treatments have made him sound.

The book compiles research on Condorcet's Paradox over some two centuries.
