Reviews

'...Marshall uses the details of women's lives in the everyday to weave a compelling and complex story of the role of law in defining our very choices in both the liberating and oppressive sense. Synthesizing the recent socio-legal literature in legal consciousness, legal mobilization, and everyday resistance with the sociological literature on the influence of social movements, this book offers the reader an effective guide to understand law influence on social meaning and social action.' Professor Scott Barclay, University at Albany: SUNY, USA '...this is an interesting book whose publication in the UK offers the potential to provide a starting point for a comparison of the legal rules that apply in the US with those that apply here and in the European Union...worth reading by anyone with an interest in sexual harassment and its attendant problems.' The Cambrian Law Review
