Gender in the Legal Profession: Fitting or Breaking the Mould (Law and Society) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The history of the legal profession in Canada and elsewhere is one of the exclusion of women, Aboriginals, ethnic and racial minorities, and those from less privileged classes.

She asks why such exclusion has been practiced and what its effects have been, particularly with respect to women.
