Summary: Thought-provoking, diverse, and recommended reading
Review: Gender And American Politics: Women, Men, And The Political Process is a candid collection of original essays deftly edited by Sue Tolleson-Rinehart and Jyl Josephson that explore various gender roles in American political life, from Gender and Tax, to Gender and the Federal Judiciary. Of particular fascination is why and how "Women Get Sicker, Men Die Quicker" is reflected through public health-care policy.
