In 2016, Foreman served as chair of The Man Booker Prize. That same year, her BBC documentary series, 'The Ascent of Woman', was released.

Currently, she is a columnist for The Wall Street Journal bi-weekly ‘Historically Speaking’ and an Honorary Research Senior Fellow in the History Department at the University of Liverpool. Her next book, ‘The World Made by Women: A History of Women from the Apple to the Pill’, is scheduled to be published by Penguin Random House in 2020.

Coming in 2020

The World Made By Women: a narrative history of women from prehistory to present day. It is time for the history of women to break free from the straight jacket of Women's History. The history of women is the history of the world.
