IMPORTANT LEGAL HANDBOOK ON SEX DISCRIMINATION, WARMLY INSCRIBED BY THE CONTRIBUTORS TO RUTH BADER GINSBURG.BABCOCK, BARBARA ALLEN BABCOCK; and SUSAN DELLER ROSS, ANN FREEDMAN, RHONDA COPELON, DEBORAH L. RHODE, NADINE TAUB, WENDY WEBSTER WILLIAMS. Sex Discrimination and the Law: History, Practice and Theory. Boston: Little, Brown, 1976, 1996. Hardcover, no dust jacket. Second Edition. WITH: Autograph Note Signed ("Sue") from Susan Deller Ross presenting the book and discussing Justice Ginsburg's positive prognosis, 1 p, on her Georgetown Law desk stationery, October 6, 1999. PRESENTATION COPY FROM THE CONTRIBUTORS, EACH OFFERING A WARM INSCRIPTION FOR JUSTICE GINSBURG. Sex Discrimination and the Law was the second legal handbook on sex discrimination, following Ginsburg's Sex-Based Discrimination published in 1974. The women responsible for the work—Susan Ross, Barbara Babcock, and Ann Freedman (as well as Eleanor Holmes Norton)—worked closely with Ruth Bader Ginsburg as they forged the legal framework for women's rights, through law school curricula and the court system, largely under the ACLU Women's Rights Project headed by Ginsburg. Each of these women, as well as later co-authors Copelon, Rhode, Taub and Williams, have played outsized roles in the development of women's equality and civil rights in conjunction with and in the wake of Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Indeed, it was Babcock, as Jimmy Carter's head of the Justice Department's Civil Division, who fought for Ruth Bader Ginsburg's first federal appointment, against the wishes of the attorney general, writing in an important memo to Carter: "Women are not fungible ... For a very visible appointment that could lead to the Supreme Court, it has to be Ruth," noting that not naming someone so well qualified who had also paid her dues would be "a slap in the face." Ginsburg credited Babcock with her position in a 2018 interview. The warm inscriptions in this landmark book are a testament to the role Ginsburg played both in redefining American life and gender equality, and in the lives of the individual women who worked with her.
