    About this ebook

    "Harriet Martineau" is a biography of an English social theorist often seen as the first female sociologist. Harriet Martineau wrote from a sociological, holistic, religious, and feminine angle, translated works by Auguste Comte, and, rarely for a woman writer at the time, earned enough to support herself. The book presented here gives an interesting insight into her life.
