Josephine Elizabeth Butler (1828–1906) was a prominent English feminist. This volume, first published anonymously in 1871, explores the legal ramifications of the Contagious Diseases Acts. Butler denounces the Acts for denying women their civil rights and discusses how their repeal, with universal suffrage, would prevent this situation from recurring.
