Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin.
Two women a week are killed by a spouse or partner.
Every seven minutes a woman is raped.
The police receive one phone call per minute about domestic violence.
Now is the time for change.
Helena Kennedy forensically examines the pressing new evidence that women are being discriminated against when it comes to the law. From the shocking lack of female judges to the scandal of female prisons and the double discrimination experienced by BAME women, Kennedy shows with force and fury that change for women must start at the heart of what makes society just.
Previously published as Eve Was Shamed.

Critic Reviews
Stimulating and scary (Jeanette Winterson)
An excellent and forensic takedown... fascinating and chilling... women are being let down wholesale by a justice system designed with men in mind. And almost the worst thing is, it doesn't have to be this way (Caroline Criado-Perez)
An unflinching look at women in the justice system… an important book because it challenges acquiescence to everyday sexism and inspires change (Kirsty Brimelow)
