Description and Table of Contents

Description

An honest and informative text on sex discrimination and the law, THE LAW OF SEX DISCRIMINATION approaches the idea of using law to combat sex discrimination from a variety of contexts; for example, as an occasion for ideological disputes, as a reflection of contemporary policy debates over the future direction of society, or as part of the historical development (and response to) feminism. Appendices that deal with the court system, a brief discussion of how to outline cases, and a glossary of legal and technical terms are included.
