Customer Reviews

very good primary source material

Although this book is admittedly not the most accessible one in it's class, it is one of the most useful if you have the time and desire to delve into the issues of sex and the law in depth. The book is comprised almost entirely of court decisions, and as such is an invaluable compendium of source material. If you're looking for a brief overview look elsewhere, but if you want a roundup of relevant court decisions this is an excellent reference.

The Law of Sex Discrimanation

An above average text book which did more than serve its purpose. It also provided a good reference for a research paper and talked in detail about a number of legal cases.
