Reviews

Feminist Judgments Aotearoa is a fascinating, sometimes confronting, but ultimately extremely rewarding read which challenges us to see other legitimate possibilities in the law. -- Caroline Hickman * LawTalk *
The judgments and the commentary that precede them, are a powerful means of teaching us to see a legal case through a different lens, helpful both in the classroom and for established researchers, practitioners, and members of the judiciary... This collection offers an opportunity to step back and survey the land of the law, and to do so with fresh eyes - a valuable opportunity when many are practising or researching in highly specialised areas. -- Dr Bridgette Toy-Cronin, University of Otago * New Zealand Women's Law Journal *
