Black and white photographic plates, 294pp, paperback, bookseller's label on lower cover, good copy. "Ling Wang's family endured persectuion and forced labour camps under the shadow of Mao's political campaigns while Ling herself battled chronic illness. But these hardships only steeled her fiery sense of justice, fuelling her determination to become a judge. Through resolute hard work she succeeded at the age of just 27, only to find herself resented by some male colleagues. Her conviction that everyone was equal before the law put her frequently at odds with her superiors. And in going aginst the belief that real women had a husband and family, not a career, she seemed set to remain single for life. Until something remarkable happened." (Publisher's description).
