Conventional “Wisdom” and the Rise of Women

Did the rise of 1960s feminism improve the lives of women in academia and the work world?

First consider these:

Was the percentage of women in “Who’s Who in America” higher in 1908 or in 1950?

Did more women have post-graduate degrees in the 1920s+1930s or the 1950s?

Thomas Sowell discusses these and other issues here.
