'Drawing on and extending key feminist insights on difference and diversity, Angela Ledford makes an important intervention that convincingly details how changing our political system to account for gender, race, class and other lines of division can make it simultaneously more democratic and equitable. This is theoretical writing of the first order that could not be more practical. And it is exactly the kind of thinking our politics now so desperately needs.'Sanford F. Schram, Bryn Mawr College, USA'Angela Ledford's new book has much to offer. Its engagement with feminist theory offers salient new insights. Its focus on the interplay between class and culture also illuminates the plight of marginalized groups with respect to their political representation (or lack of it). Most importantly, however, Professor Ledford provides positive suggestions for electoral reform - that are well worth thinking about.'Stephen Eric Bronner, Rutgers University, USA
