<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Based on many years of research into ancient history and prehistory, this insightful tome argues that three million years of peace--a period when women's status in society was much higher than it is now--preceded the last 6,000 years of war during which men have come to hold power over women. The book challenges the idea accepted in academia that history is a linear development in which society is steadily moving out of a violent and patriarchal past to a more equitable and peaceful future, and it reexamines both the archaeological work of Marjia Gimbutas and recent research into the prehistories of Africa, Asia, the Americas, and Australia and Oceania.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Judy Foster</b> is an art teacher and the author of books for primary school art teachers. <b>Marlene Derlet</b> is a linguist with a background in anthropology and sociology. She formerly taught at the Monash Centre for Indigenous Studies and is the coauthor of <i>Talking Up a Storm</i>.
