'Thisimportant bookdemonstrates how man-made laws and legal procedures bear down harshly and unfairly on women who try to exercise their free speech rights to complain about domestic violence and abuse. At a time when reform of defective laws of defamation and confidentiality is being considered in many English-speaking countries,the injustices eloquently described by these authors deserve special attention.Theirs is a book that should be read - with shame - by judges and politicians and with appreciation by news editors, journalists, and all concerned to enhance freedom of speech.' -- Geoffrey Robertson KC _barrister, former UN judge and author

'The authors show how a siloed approach to law, together with long outdated but persistent myths about women (particularly in relation to sexual violence and gender-based violence) perpetuates injustice in practice. Using case studies from across the globe, many involving their clients, the authors seek to break this silence, give women back their voice and show how change can and is happening.A fine example of feminist legal scholarship.It should be made essential reading for law students, trainee advocates and judges.' -- Dr Susan Atkins CB _author of Woman and the Law

A clear-eyes and damning indictment of a criminal justice system that has armoured the reputations of the rich and powerful while leaving victims vulnerable and exposed. _Irish Independent

Interpersonal violence will not end until we are free to speak about it openly and honestly. And yet the sobering reality, powerfully exposed by Jennifer Robinson and Keina Yoshida inHow Many More Women,is that victims have been repeatedly silenced. In engaging and accessible prose, Robinson and Yoshida reclaim free speech as a fundamental human right for victims of gender-based violence and as essential for creating a truly free and civil society. _Professor Emerit Jennifer Joy Freud
