Reviews

'... [a] thorough, compelling, and valuable book.' Richard Poole, Feminist Legal Studies 'Bisom-Rapp and Sargeant use a model of lifetime disadvantage to argue that antidiscrimination law adopts an incremental and disjointed approach to resolving the challenges of gender discrimination, and conclude that a more holistic orientation toward eliminating women's discrimination and disadvantage is required before true gender equality can be achieved.' Law and Social Inquiry


'Drawing together this wide a range of data and to present it in such an accessible way is a fine achievement. The wealth of data offered on women's lifetime disadvantage, all of it drawn from a range of sources from the last five or six years, and demonstrating trends in discrimination and working patterns over the past 50 years, is extremely valuable to any one doing research into the impact of gender discrimination. ...
