      Definitely reinforced my decision to go to law school. The book includes an abundance of valuable information to give us an understanding of navigating law school. Great book if you are considering law school but remain undecided. I love that the author acknowledges that law originated with a specific gender and race and how as future lawyers we can identify those laws and advocate and create change in an effort to create laws that are gender inclusive and unbiased. I also appreciate the author recognizing that if we have the desire to go to law school we can and will achieve this goal and that we truly do belong in the inclusive lecture hall of law school. Excellent book!
