From Jenson's first day on the job, through three intensely humiliating trials, to the emotional day of the settlement, this is the thrilling story of how one woman pioneered and won the first sexual harassment class action suit in the United States.

Reseñas de la Crítica
"Riveting, assiduously well-reported....A useful reminder of the emotional and psychological cost of waging even the most successful-and justified-lawsuits." (New Yorker)
"Bingham and Gansler have come up with mesmerizing, complex portraits of the participants in a beautifully paced narrative....Impeccable." (Washington Post)
Society owns a great debt to the women who sacrificed their lives to eliminate physical, sexual, and financial abuse from the workplace.

Class Action details the price paid by the women who pursued this case. You may find the language and the graphic depictions somewhat shocking, but this is a true account of what happened in some mines and other workplaces prior to and even after Anita Hill's testimony against Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, and Congress and the courts establishing damage awards for sexual harassment.
The narrator does a fine job, but the book repeats itself slightly in a couple of areas.
I chose Class Action because I teach a course in Human Resources Management that includes sexual harassment as part of the curriculum. Having an interest in the subject matter is probably the most important prerequisite for enjoying this book. If you choose Class Action, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

While the story is obviously one sided, it is hard to imagine a reason that could validate what these woman went through. That is was not resolved until just a few years ago is amazing.
The story of the first class action sexual harassment case in the US is intriguing and will infuriate you as the details of what these woman were subjected to unfolds. They were victimized by coworkers, management, their union, attorneys and even judges. Whatever they won could not begin to repay them for the mental anguish and health issues they suffered.
A listen worth your time.
