From the Back Cover
"Mona Harrington's book travels far beyond its lucid analysis of women and the legal profession to raise profound issues about feminist thought and the problem of equality. Blessedly free of jargon, this is a book for Everywoman and Everyman."
-- Jill Ker Conway, author of The Road from Coorain
"An important and perceptive analysis of the influx of women into the legal profession: Mona Harrington successfully explores both the demands of the law on women's lives and the potential for women to transform the rule-making process."
-- Madeleine Kunin, former Governor of Vermont, now a member of the Clinton administration
"A most important book for all lawyers who seek to understand the crucial connection between law and politics, and how in a democracy, public pressure becomes converted into rules. Anyone seriously interested in the quality of our system of justice should read this book."
-- Daniel R. Coquillette, Boston College Law School
"This book is for all professional women who want to understand their experience as women in the world of work. Personable, humane, deeply intelligent, Mona Harrington has explored the issues, both public and private, faced by women trying to make their way in male-dominated professions. Absorbing and illuminating, full of powerful and appealing examples, hard to put down."
-- Jane Tompkins, Duke University
