    An excellent short biography
    This is a well written short biography of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. It gives a complete story of her life in a short, easily accessible form. I found it very interesting and compelling. I learned so much about her background and difficulties in achieving success in the field of law because of her sex. And how it was her strength and fortitude that allowed her to accomplish so much. A very inspirational story that has encouraged me to learn more about Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

    Good read- informative
    I am not a die hard admirer of RBG but I do respect her intellect. I mention this as I see so many “book reviews” rave or dismiss a book based on how the subject is viewed and not the book. This is a well written and organized book with enough high level personal and professional information to give the reader a solid feel for the life of RBG. It is impossible for a short read like this to get into a lot of detail but in this book you get a feel for how she thinks and her court rulings based on her life’s experiences. The role or her parents, her husband and children was enlightening. Several of her more important rulings and dissents are covered. As the book notes, RBG is a polarizing figure on the SCOTUS and will be for all history but even her distractors like Bork and Scalia, liked and respected her as she does/did them. I think this book points out nicely that today it is more important than ever that people show respect for each other’s opinions even if you don’t agree with them on something.

    Strong Woman.
    Ruth Bader, is an incredible and inspiring woman. The struggles of discrimination, sexism and gender equality, she endured in her life have been the driving force that continues to motivate her. Due to her contributions she has aided millions of women and men to reach some form of equality in the workforce especially. She challenge, dismantled and disrupted the status quo. Her persevered for change continues to this day, her work is not finished. Yet, in her career thus far, she has propelled the gender equality gap in the right direction towards growth, acceptance, and justice. Making the values that were instilled to her by her parent and mentors, an outstanding contribution to the American people for we have benefited of her hard work. A woman of such talented caliber is an inspiration we all need in this day in age.

    Boring
    Thanks for the boring history lesson. I have to write 15 more words, but there is really nothing more to say.

    Another Hero Lost
    I thought the book was well written.I’ve never had much interest in the Justices of the US Supreme Court but RBG caught my interest and I wanted to know more about her and what made her tick… It’s very sad to say that this country has lost another Hero that stood up for the under dog and fought for fairness no matter the gender.

    Ruth Bader Ginsberg: A Lawful Revolutionary
    I knew this would be a good book from the title. Ruth Bader Ginsberg is an honorary leader in civil law and creating opportunities for women in law. Her story is filled with equal triumphs and tragedies that only offer a further testament to this gem of American history. I highly recommend to all feminists or people interested in equality in all professions.

    Until this incredible lady died I didn’t even know she existed. I have been following the US election of 2020 in great detail and I was horrified when Trump overturned her dying wish to wait a few weeks until after the election before replacing her in the Supreme Court. She achieved so much in her life and this, to me, was a betrayal of everything she stood for and believed in – justice, democracy and respect. Something which Trump will never understand . I think her story should be told and understood. Even if you do not have the same political views as Justice Ginsburg you cannot fail to admire her spirit and her fight for equality for women and the extraordinary compassion she showed towards others. Trump could learn a lot from reading about her life – or perhaps this is beyond him?
