The Man-Made World, written by Charlotte Perkins Gilman in 1898, is a feminist and sociological treatise that critiques the patriarchal society of her time. The book explores the ways in which women were marginalized and oppressed within the social, political, and economic structures of their day. Through a series of essays and poetry, Gilman argues for the need to challenge these systems and create a more equitable and just society.
