<br/><br/> Dorothy Wright Nelson was a prominent federal judge on the level just below the U.S. Supreme Court for over 40 years. Although women had few opportunities in law when she graduated, she became one of the first female law professors and deans. The book offers an in-depth look at her life and her rise as a national expert in what is now the major field of alternative dispute resolution or conflict resolution. Featuring extensive interviews with judges, professors, and legal leaders, they offer first-hand accounts and multiple perspectives on how she was an extraordinary trailblazer in a traditional, male-dominated profession.
