LIBERTY OF MAN, WOMAN AND CHILD - INGERSOLL
"This book is revolutionary because it challenges the assumptions of its time — and ours. Ingersoll’s call for gender equality was extraordinary, demanding not just recognition of women’s rights but also a rethinking of society’s attitudes toward women as intellectual and emotional equals. He spoke not out of abstract idealism but from a deeply human perspective, valuing love, respect, and partnership as cornerstones of a free and happy life.
What makes this work even more remarkable is its recognition of children as individuals with inherent rights — a radical idea in the 19th century. Ingersoll’s vision extended beyond liberation from religious dogma; he argued for the liberation of young minds. He believed that children deserved a nurturing environment, free from fear and oppression, where they could develop their potential and explore the world with curiosity and joy."
