Growing up in Brooklyn in the 1930s and '40s, Ginsburg was discouraged from working by her father, who thought a woman's place was in the home. Regardless, she went to Cornell University, where men outnumbered women four to one. There, she met her husband, Martin Ginsburg, and found her calling as a lawyer. Despite discrimination against Jews, females, and working mothers, Ginsburg went on to become Columbia Law School's first tenured female professor, a judge for the US Court of Appeals, and finally, a Supreme Court justice. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Structured as a court case in which the reader is presented with evidence of the injustice that Ginsburg faced, \u003ci\u003eRuth Bader Ginsburg\u003c\/i\u003e is the true story of how one of America's most \"notorious\" women bravely persevered to become the remarkable symbol of justice she is today. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"The text, informative without overwhelming, is extended by an author's note describing some of Ginsburg's actual court cases . . .
