Writ­ing in the per­spec­tive of for­mer Supreme Court Jus­tice Ruth Bad­er Gins­burg as she looks back on the arc of her life, Brad Meltzer makes a remark­ably strong case that Gins­burg was a trail­blaz­er for equal­i­ty, some­one who thought about how she want­ed the world to be for her chil­dren and her­self. Begin­ning in the 1930s, Gins­burg assert­ed her dis­com­fort about the lim­it­ed expec­ta­tions for girls.
