"This is much more than a story of a single case. It provides a panoramic overview of the role of work in women's lives, a succinct history of employment discrimination law, and a penetrating analysis of the evolution of our views of sexual harassment in the workplace."--Karen O'Connor, author of Women, Politics, and American Society"After Vinson, nothing was the same. Cochran does a masterful job of setting the case in its historical context and exploring its legal impact."--Judith A. Baer, author of Our Lives before the Law: Constructing a Feminist Jurisprudence "Cochran is an exceptional raconteur and his book is comprehensive, thorough, and wonderfully forward-looking."--Nancy Levit, author of The Gender Line: Men, Women, and the Law.
