The American judicial system is highlighted as a unique domain where women have been treated equally to men, despite widespread criticism. This equality under the law has led to the legal execution of nearly six hundred women since 1632, raising complex questions about justice and gender. The book delves into the historical context and implications of these executions, examining how the legal system both empowers and condemns women.
