'Brilliantly introduced and orchestrated by the world's most innovative thinker about gender and the law, Catharine A. MacKinnon, this collection of illuminating research papers on every important facet of this kaleidoscopic topic is one that any scholar or policymaker who cares about the role that law plays in structuring gender relations, and the role that gender plays in structuring the law, needs to own.' -- Laurence H. Tribe, Harvard Law School, US 'Catharine A. MacKinnon, one of the world's foremost feminist legal scholars and activists, has compiled a masterful collection of materials on gender in constitutional law across the globe. The breadth and quality of coverage makes this book essential reading for anyone interested in comparative perspectives on sex-based inequalities and legal responses.' -- Deborah L. Rhode, Stanford Law School, US 'This groundbreaking and carefully curated collection of work of a diverse group of leading international legal scholars puts gender in its place - at the centre of constitutional law. The book is a welcome and timely addition to constitutional law scholarship.' -- Reg Greycar, 11th Floor St James Hall Chambers, Australia
