"Shows up the tripwires in the paths of women leaders for what they are, double binds that can and must be challenged."--Right Honorable Kim Campbell, former Prime Minister of Canada "[Jamieson] makes you want to get in there, on either side of a big, interesting war with lots at stake--a war intelligent people should find worth fighting."--The New York Times Book Review "Lucid...entertaining, and at times shocking."--Kirkus Reviews "Shows up the tripwires in the paths of women leaders for what they are, double binds that can and must be challenged."--Right Honorable Kim Campbell, former Prime Minister of Canada "[Jamieson] makes you want to get in there, on either side of a big, interesting war with lots at stake--a war intelligent people should find worth fighting."--The New York Times Book Review "Lucid...entertaining, and at times shocking."--Kirkus Reviews "Shows up the tripwires in the paths of women leaders for what they are, double binds that can and must be challenged."--Right Honorable Kim Campbell, former Prime Minister of Canada "[Jamieson] makes you want to get in there, on either side of a big, interesting war with lots at stake--a war intelligent people should find worth fighting."--The New York Times Book Review "Lucid...entertaining, and at times shocking."--Kirkus Reviews "Shows up the tripwires in the paths of women leaders for what they are, double binds that can and must be challenged."--Right Honorable Kim Campbell, former Prime Minister of Canada "[Jamieson] makes you want to get in there, on either side of a big, interesting war with lots at stake--a war intelligent people should find worth fighting."--The New York Times Book Review "Lucid...entertaining, and at times shocking."--Kirkus Reviews

"I can remember, " says lawyer Flo Kennedy, "going to court in pants and the judge remarking that I wasn't properly dressed, that the next time I came to court I should be dressed like a lawyer." It was a moment painfully familiar to countless women: a demand that she conform to a stereotype of feminine dress and behavior - which would also mark her as an intruder, rising above her assigned station (as the saying goes, she dared to "wear the pants" in the courtroom).

Unlike other breakthrough feminist writers, she finds grounds for optimism in areas ranging from sl
