This book should be mandatory reading for all first-year female law students. Strike that—it should be mandatory for all female attorneys. If there is one figure who has paved the way for women attorneys, women in general and the cause of gender equality, it is Ruth Bader Ginsburg. This biography is artistic, featuring charts, cartoons, recipes and timelines. But it is also comprehensive.
To understand Justice Ginsburg’s opinions, we must understand her early life. Her father was a Jewish immigrant furrier from Odessa; her mother a daughter of Eastern European immigrants who always longed for an education. Ginsburg would often say that her mother was the most intelligent person she ever knew.
