In Defence of Witches

Where were the witches?!

Apart from a little in the introduction and a few mentions through the rest of the book, there are very few links to history, witches or witch hunts. This is largely a look at modern feminism, societal pressure to have children and the misogyny associated with this.

This in itself wouldn't be a bad thing, if you went into the book expecting it, but the title, book cover and blurb make it sound like this would be more focused on how feminism and misogyny are linked to attitudes to women thought to be witches throughout history.

Also, the introduction is way too long and covers all of the points the author then goes on to elaborate on, over and over - it quickly becomes incredibly repetitive.
