"Published by UBC Press for the Osgoode Society for Canadian Legal History by University of Toronto Press" --T.p.
Summary:
"Both lionized and vilified, Claire L'Heureux-Dubé has shaped the Canadian legal landscape - and in particular its highest court. Only the second woman on the Supreme Court of Canada, L'Heureux-Dubé anchored her approach to cases in their social, economic, and political context. This compelling biography takes a similar tack, tracing the experience of a francophone woman within the male-dominated Quebec legal profession - and within the primarily anglophone world of the Supreme Court. In the process, Claire L'Heureux-Dubé enhances our understanding of the Canadian judiciary, the creation of law, the Quebec socio-legal environment, and the nation's top court."--From publisher.
