Reviews

This is a collection of essays written by women attorneys for women who need legal information. Family- and health- related issues such as divorce, family violence, and reproductive rights are covered, as are business topics of particular concern to women, e.g., intellectual property, business start-ups, and the woman as employer. Estate planning, sexual discrimination, dealing with disabilities, and the rights of lesbian women are considered as well. The writing is consistently clear, objective, and practical. Each chapter summarizes the pertinent legal issues and provides definitions of legal terms and lists of agencies and associations offering assistance. Contributors successfully present the concepts in the context of the contemporary social climate and do an excellent job of clarifying complicated procedures. Recommended for public libraries.?Joan Pedzich, Harris, Beach & Wilcox, Rochester, N.Y.
