About this book

This book provides a comprehensive study of the neglected story of the involvement of the women's movement with criminal justice policy in the 20th century. Taking the topic from the 'suffragette' era to the early days of 'second-wave' feminism, the book argues that criminal justice policy has been a continual concern for feminists.

Reviews

'From an historical point of view, this is an interesting and wonderful book to read.' - Abiola Onatade, The Magistrate
