5.0 out of 5 stars
An interesting and scholarly book,
By
This review is from: Eve Was Framed: Women and British Justice (Paperback)
Baroness Kennedy draws from her experience in representing women who have been in violent relationships to produce another great book. It is well researched- not just a bunch anecdotes from the courts (unlike quite a few other lawyer generated books about the law). Researchers of the law and social change, domestic violence, feminist studies, and the British legal/judicial system, will find this book particularly useful.

Eve was framed,

This review is from: Eve Was Framed: Women and British Justice (Paperback)
As a student wishing to embark in a career in the law. This book opened my eyes to the incriminating state of british 'justice'. Written in a clear, succinct style, Helena Kennedy excels in a field where many other lawyers would dare to tread. Well worth the read either for those who specialise in the law, or for the layman who should be told that such inadequacies lie in our judicial system.

A must for any female in Law or in fact business,
By A Customer
This review is from: Eve Was Framed: Women and British Justice (Paperback)
I read this book as part of a reading list for my Law Degree, at the time I was dubious about reading it and approached is as a chore, thank goodness I did. Since that time I have followed Helena Kennedys work even though I did not follow a career in law.She is not making a 'feminist' statement more of a detailed backed up comment on the injustice women receive in law, particulary if you are not in the 'middle - upper class' and young women entering law would be wise to read this to keep you focussed on your goal. This book is and has been a huge inspiration to me throughout my career. Thank you Helena
