First paperback edition of this "comprehensive analysis of the politics of the Equal Rights Amendment" (Journal of American History). Octavo, original publisher's pictorial wrappers, illustrated with black and white photographs. Presentation copy, inscribed by co-author Jane Sherron de Hart on the half title page, "For Ruth Bader Ginsberg [sic] with admiration Jane De H." From the library of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Arguably the most famous Supreme Court Justice in American history, 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. Popularly dubbed âthe Notorious R.B.G.â (a play on the name of famed 90s rapper The Notorious B.I.G.), Ginsburg was responsible for some of the most eventful legal decisions of the past half-century. When she was nominated by President Bill Clinton in 1993 to replace retiring justice Byron White, Ginsburg became both the first Jewish woman and the second woman to serve on the Court, after Sandra Day OâConnor. Ginsburg was born and grew up in Brooklyn, New York, earned degrees at Cornell University and Columbia Law School, and began her career as a professor at Rutgers Law School and Columbia Law School, teaching civil procedure as one of the few women in her field. She spent much of her early legal career as an advocate for gender equality and womenâs rights, winning many arguments before the Supreme Court and, in 1972, co-founded the Womenâs Rights Project at the American Civil Liberties Union which participated in more than 300 gender discrimination cases by 1974. In 1980, President Jimmy Carter appointed her to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, where she served until her appointment to the Supreme Court in 1993. During her tenure as associate justice of the Supreme Court, Ginsburg received increasing attention for her fiery and passionate dissents that reflected liberal views of the law. 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. In 2002, Ginsburg was inducted into the National Womenâs Hall of Fame, she was named one of Forbesâ 100 Most Powerful Women in 2009, and one of Time magazineâs 100 most influential people in 2015. Her powerful and fiery dissent in the 2013 Supreme Court case Shelby County v. Holder, in which she argued against the majorityâs decision to strike down key provisions of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, emphasizing the continued need for its protections against racial discrimination in voting, earned her the nickname âThe Notorious R.B.G.â â" a moniker she came to embrace which has since become a celebration of her important legal career and legacy. Widely regarded as one of the most remarkable women in American history, Ginsburg redefined and transcended the traditional role of Supreme Court justice, ascending to the status of intergenerational feminist pop culture icon.

"[Sex, Gender, and the Politics of ERA] Reveals the deeply felt meanings that activated participants on both sides of the battle . A fine contribution to our understanding of the increasingly salient politics of gender in the United States" (Frances Fox Piven, City University of New York). "Much more than a narrative account of the ratification process at the state level . The authors are to be commended for their balanced, dispassionate treatment of a topic for which no middle ground exists" (North Carolina Historical Review).
