Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners. Slight sunning of page borders.

Adelaide writer Susan Mitchell sets out to trace the so-called 'feminisation' of Australian federal politics. Her investigation leads her to politicians, ex-politicians, journalists and political commentators and the interviews that result provide a behind-the-scenes look at life in the House on the Hill.

She also chronicles a decisive period for women in Australian politics in the late 1990s, as the battle to set 'quotas' for female candidates began in earnest.
