Women are being systematically discriminated against because of their gender. The aim of this book is to expose this structural discrimination across a range of areas where it occurs. <br/><br/>The book also explores violence against women and looks at how the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Africa is linked to the denial of women's rights.
