Arguing that there is a significant difference in legislative outcomes when the number of women in a given legislature reaches a certain threshold, the author provides one of the first analyses of the overall effects of women on the laws that are passed and on the way legislative business is done.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sue Thomas\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0195085086\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780195085082\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/10\/1994\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.25h x 5.55w x 0.61d","brand":"Sue Thomas","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44119404118271,"sku":"9780195085082","price":117.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_35c2093e-d552-479a-8b05-50a3fe1d31a9.jpg?v=1687409171","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/how-women-legislate-sue-thomas-9780195085082","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
