Book Reviews of Equal Play: Title IX and Social Change
Book Review: Seminal book on Title IX, a landmark law passed in 1972
Summary: 5 Stars
Equal Play is an extremely well-written, comprehensive history of Title IX (passed into law in 1972) and its impact on social change in the U.S. The book is very informative, well-researched and a must for anyone interested in Title IX, the most important law for women and girls since women won the right to vote in 1920. It is also an incredibly inspiring book, detailing the periodic gains, losses and continuing struggle to uphold Title IX. Equal Play documents how women must fight continually for what should be our rights in a democracy--namely gender equity in education and sports. This book should be read by all generations and brings us to the current day on the state of Title IX.
