Zusammenfassung: | Two books examined the social conditions of working women and the anthology of women's creative and critical writing on law and literature. Robin West's book focuses on a decision of the US Supreme Court in 1907 which barred women in Oregon to work for more than 10 hours a day because of their ability to bear and nurture children. Jacqueline St. Joan and Annette Bennington McElhiney's work is designed for classroom use and provides a testament to the state of women's lives in America. |
