Ruth Bader Ginsberg is a professional legend and cultural icon of the American judiciary, one of the first women to serve on the US Supreme Court, and a tireless advocate for gender equality. In My Words, with Mary Hartnett and Wendy W. Williams, convincingly demonstrates that Ginsberg's life and work as a judge is not without its challenges. Williams, a commentary on selected articles, speeches, and memoranda from Ginsberg's high school years to the bench, convincingly demonstrates the breadth of the Justice's legal interests, her legal rigour and deep commitment to equality for all, and her gratitude to all who have paved the way for her and generations to come.

In her own words, Ginsberg promoted equality and opposed discrimination, and expressed gratitude and honour for those who came before her and with her.

What we see here is not a portrait of an uncompromising advocate, but of a legal strategist who understands how to persuade an audience to take her side.
