520    "A sweeping history of the federal legislation that 
       prohibits sex discrimination in education, published on 
       the fiftieth anniversary of Title IX."--|cProvided by 
       publisher. 
520    "By prohibiting sex discrimination in federally funded 
       education, the 1972 legislation popularly known as Title 
       IX profoundly changed the lives of millions in the United 
       States, accelerating a movement for equal education in 
       classrooms, on sports fields, and in all of campus life. 
       37 Words is the story of Title IX. Filled with rich 
       characters -- from Bernice Resnick Sandler, an early 
       organizer for the law, to her trans grandchild -- the 
       story of Title IX is a legislative and legal drama with 
       conflicts over regulations and challenges to the law. It's
       also a human story about women denied opportunities, 
       students struggling for an education free from sexual 
       harassment, and activists defying sexist discrimination. 
       These intersecting narratives of women seeking an 
       education, playing sports, and wanting protection from 
       sexual harassment and assault map gains and setbacks for 
       feminism in the last fifty years and show how some women 
       benefit more than others. Award-winning journalist Sherry 
       Boschert beautifully explores the gripping history of 
       Title IX through the gutsy people behind it."--Amazon
