"Especially valuable for students.... The authors areable to cover substantial policy ground in their exploration of both thehistorical origins of policies impacting women's rights and contemporarydevelopments." ―Sara Chatfield, Political Science Quarterly
"Offers keen insights on contentious public policy issues that affect the status of women. The focus on the 'revolving door' toward progress highlights the complicated interactions among all three branches of government in the policymaking process." ―Laura van Assendelft, Mary Baldwin University
Despite women's many gains in the political, economic, and social spheres, equality remains elusive―and in some areas, ground is being lost. Why? Why does the pay gap between women and men persist? Why is sexual harassment and assault so prevalent in schools and universities? Why are efforts to diminish women's individual autonomy, restricting their access to reproductive health care, succeeding?
Susan Mezey and Megan Sholar address these disturbing questions, tracing the struggle for women's equal rights and opportunities in the US across more than a century.
