In Three Felonies a Day, Harvey A.

The principles presented in this book are a very valuable sum of the practical and scientific knowledge that the human being uses to dominate others, through persuasion, in all aspects of life: the producer of the favorite program, the car salesman, the presidential candidate, the crying little girl, the elementary teacher, and even our mother use some of these principles without knowing it. Only a few privileged people knew them formally to dominate the will of others; now you also have the power in your hands.

Throughout this time Imperial Russia faced many challenges, but none greater than those that brought about its demise in 1917: World war, the rise of the urban proletariat, and the birth of an heir afflicted with haemophilia. Even a forceful and inspiring leader would have struggled to turn back the tide of revolution that plagued this closing act, and Tsar Nicholas II possessed neither of these qualities. But there was another side to Russia’s last tsar that the public never got to see.

How was it possible for one woman, later joined by a handful of others, to overcome a large organisation and bring about a gender equality sea change in higher education in her country? This is the story of how the granddaughter of Ireland's most famous suffragette won a gender discrimination case for lack of promotion, the first such win in either Ireland or the UK; then donated her €70,000 award to five other women, also passed over in that promotion round, for their High Court case.
