Women in Law - Audio – Details, episodes & analysis

Since 2002, the UK has seen the first female President of the Law Society, the first woman Chairman of the Bar, and the first woman at the Court of Appeal.

Gary Slapper, Professor of Law at The Open University discusses the issues with Frances Gibb, Legal Editor of The Times.
