      "As victims of sexual harassment increasingly come forward to tell their stories, each prominent case sets off debates about the rights of the accused. The national conversation has grown polarized, inflamed by a narrative that wrongly presents feminism and fair process as warring interests. Sexual Justice is an intervention, pointing the way to common ground. Drawing on the core principles of civil rights law and personal experiences of victims and the accused, Alexandra Brodsky shows how schools, workplaces, and other institutions can — indeed, must — address sexual harassment in ways fair to all. And she explains how to resist the anti-feminist backlash that hijacks the rhetoric of due process to protect male impunity."-- Back cover.

      The memoir captures the author's transformative journey from post-war Europe to Australia, beginning with her family's reunion after hiding from the Gestapo. It intertwines personal experiences with the broader historical context of the mid-twentieth century. The narrative explores her family's travels through war-torn France and Belgium before settling in 1940s Sydney, offering unique insights into the effects of post-war migration. Additionally, her return to Europe and marriage to scientist Henry Harris enrich the cultural tapestry of the story, making it a compelling read.
