Riassunto

This is a personal criticism of the British legal system, its courts, its judges, its procedures. It takes women as the key example, showing how they have been adversely affected by images of women held by both lawyers and jurors, discussing recent debates and cases such as the Sara Thornton case, the Kennedy rape trial as well as the lesser known daily business of the court. Its scope is wide, ranging from the difficulties faced by women as lawyers to the problems of women who kill, but it also engages with the recent loss of confidence in the police and the courts generally and makes some strong recommendations for the future.
