“Packed with informative statistics about the presence of women at various levels of corporate governance — as CEOs, executive directors, managers, and in the pipeline.”
-Nancy Levit,author of The Gender Line: Men, Women, and the Law

“Coming from the pen of a leading thinker in corporate law, this book provides a powerful — if disheartening — explanation for the lack of women on corporate boards. It is provocative, impeccably researched, and compellingly written.”
