Equal: Women Reshape American LawAs late as 1967, men outnumbered women twenty to one in American law schools. With the loss of deferments from Vietnam, reluctant law schools began admitting women to avoid plummeting enrollments. As women entered, the law resisted. Judges would not hire women. Law firms asserted a right to discriminate against women. Judges permitted discrimination by employers against pregnant women. Courts viewed sexual harassment as, one judge said, "a game played

As late as 1967, men outnumbered women twenty to one in American law schools. With the loss of deferments from Vietnam, reluctant law schools began admitting women to avoid plummeting enrollments. As women entered, the law resisted. Judges would not hire women. Law firms asserted a right to discriminate against women. Judges permitted discrimination by employers against pregnant women. Courts viewed sexual harassment as, one judge said, "a game played by the male superiors." Violence against women seemed to exist beyond the law's comprehension.

In this landmark book, Fred Strebeigh shows how American law advanced, far and fast. He brings together legal evidence and personal histories to portray the work of concerned women and men to advance legal rights in America. Equal combines interviews with litigators, plaintiffs, and judges, including Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Catharine MacKinnon, along with research from private archives of attorneys who took cases to the Supreme Court, to narrate battles waged against high odds and pinnacles of legal power. Equal, in the words of Professor Suzanne A. Kim of Rutgers Law School, is a book for "anyone interested in how each individual can improve our society through compassion, drive, and creativity."

Great Stuff
Set name: DinoBone 2-Pack XL, Set name: DinoBone 2-Pack XL
About as indestructible as it gets. It's just very hard molded material. I always make sure to wash the dog toys before letting them play, who knows where they come from. Picture is after hours/days of the built playing with it

Stood up against Brody test
Set name: DinoBone 2-Pack XL
Brody is a 3yr old 85lbs pit mix and has always been able to completely destroy anything that says "able to withstand the most aggressive chewing " these products live up to the claim!! It has been at least 3 days since Brody has been chewing on the toys and they are holding their own against him! Highly recommended for aggressive chewers.

Indestructible??
Set name: DinoBone 2-Pack XL, Set name: DinoBone 2-Pack XL
I am giving this product 1 star but it really deserves 0 stars. Their definition of indestructible is different than mine, my pit bull had the ends of this toy chewed off and splintered in 2 days, I'm praying that I don't have to take her to the vet because she might have swallowed some of the material that it's made with. I believe that this is a dangerous product for a dog. I will be sending them back including the one that she chewed.

Durable
Set name: DinoBone 2-Pack XL, Set name: DinoBone 2-Pack XL
I don't really like buying these super hard plastic toys for my dog, but he's such an aggressive chewer that most toys are like throwing away our money. If he doesn't destroy it it's because he doesn't like it. But these last a while. He's had one of these for almost a month now. It has chew marks, and he chewed a couple of small pieces off, but it's mostly fine. He likes it when I spread peanut butter between the ribs. The only other downside (besides feeding my dog plastic) is that it hurts worse than Lego to step on it when you're barefoot.

My dog really loves this. She has been chewing on it since it first arrived and it still hasn’t been chewed up. This toy is truly indestructible.
