Deserves to be read by anyone who is interested in the inherent injustices that abound in our legal system. . . . Well-written. . . . Gripping and important. -New York Times Book Review Anglo-American common law is based on what a reasonable adult male would or would not do-but not everyone in society is a reasonable adult male.

Unequal Protection is a trial judges account of her search for the causes of these wrong decisions.
