Item description from seller

First edition of this analysis of the American work-family conflict. Octavo, original half cloth. Association copy, inscribed by the author on the half-title page, âTo Justice Ginsburg, with admiration and thanks for your work. Joan Williams, Sept. 2011.â American lawyer and jurist Ruth Bader Ginsburg served as an associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States from 1993 until her death in 2020 and was responsible for some of the most eventful legal decisions of the past half-century. Nominated by President Bill Clinton in 1993 to replace retiring justice Byron White, Ginsburg became the first Jewish woman and the second woman to serve on the Court, after Sandra Day OâConnor. Ginsburg spent much of her legal career as an advocate for gender equality and womenâs rights, winning many arguments before the Supreme Court. During her tenure as associate justice of the Supreme Court, Ginsburg received attention for her fiery and passionate dissents that reflected liberal views of the law. She was popularly dubbed âthe Notorious R.B.G.â, a moniker she later embraced. She authored several important majority opinions related to gender discrimination, voting rights, and affirmative action in cases such as United States v. Virginia (1996) which struck down the Virginia Military Instituteâs male-only admissions policy as violating the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, Olmstead v. L.C. (1999) in which the Court ruled that mental illness is a form of disability covered under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, and Friends of the Earth, Inc. v. Laidlaw Environmental Services, Inc. (2000) in which the Court held that residents have standing to seek fines for an industrial polluter that affected their interests and that is able to continue doing so. Fine in a near fine dust jacket. Housed in a custom half morocco clamshell box. "In this sensible and erudite book, Williams adds the crucial dimensions of men's activities and differences by class to the work-family debate" (Michael Kimmel, author of 'Manhood in America').
