Caliban and the Witch

3/5

Yes, I am done with this book. But I'm aware that I am going to spend the next three months having to come back to this book because the professor wants us to read/analyze certain sections. I know I am going to end up despising it because of this. So I'll review it now. I may come back and change a couple of details later.

It's a good book. It's definitely a different perspective about the transition of feudalism to capitalism with the intersection of the witch hunt. While I do agree with some of her points I don't agree with her thesis as a whole. I do feel like she over emphasizes the effect of the witch hunt in terms of the number of women it affected. I am not that well versed when it comes to the exact details but I do believe it did affect less than 100,000 women.
