Rumors of Our Progress Have Been Greatly Exaggerated

Representative Carolyn Maloney contends in Rumors of Our Progress Have Been Greatly Exaggerated that women are still fighting to gain equal ground with men in the workplace and in political and social circles. She argues that women must guard against initiatives that would repeal gains that appeared secure thirty years ago. Representative Maloney talked about her book at an event hosted by the New York County Lawyers Association.
