Book Synopsis
Providing a feminist perspective on traditional jurisprudence, this text examines issues such as the nature of justice, the concept of harm, economic theories of value, and the utility of constitutional discourse.

Trade Review
"Starkly essentialist reasoning sounds almost quaint by today's standards of gender equality. So it is with some surprise that general readers will encounter an intense and carefully reasoned defense of essentialism from the pen of one of America's best-known feminist legal theorists." * Women's Review of Books *
"By critiquing traditional ideas about 'justice,' including economic theories about value, this provocative feminist jurisprudential scholar advances what she calls an 'ethic of care' and argues that 'if adjudication is to be just, then the goal of good judging must be both justice and care.'" * Georgia Bar Journal *
