Ansermet's invigorating and unsentimental way with Haydn has been documented on Eloquence with reissues of the Paris symphonies (480 1942) and the Symphonies Nos. 22 and 90 (480 0378). What Ansermet loved about Haydn above all was his ability to 'express afresh every time, in so satisfying and charming a way, his moral health and optimism.' In the course of his analysis, Ansermet also admires a 'heartfelt simplicity... a richness and a purity that give his work it's personal, never-changing character.' No. 101, the 'Clock' finds him in his element, taking a noble and unsentimental approach to the symphony's introduction before launching it's main argument with the kind of rhythmically taut elan that distinguishes his many recordings of Ravel and Stravinsky. Made on 11 July 1949 in the famously sympathetic acoustic of the Victoria Hall in Geneva, the recording was both Ansermet's first Haydn on record and his last recording on 78rpm. When issued on the brand-new LP format in May 1950, the recording caused a stir in the pages of Gramophone, prompting a long letter from an excited reader: 'I have never heard such reproduction on discs - not ever. The Haydn is incredibly pure.' The spirit of Haydn was reborn in the astonishingly fresh and accomplished Symphony composed by Georges Bizet as a 17-year-old student in Paris: a masterpiece of succinctness and joie de vivre, with writing of dazzling quality and a wonderful melodic sense. The work inspired great affection in Ansermet who recorded it twice. The 1961 account has already been reissued by Eloquence as part of the conductor's complete stereo recordings of Bizet (480 0457). Dating from March 1953, the earlier mono version is scarcely less vivid thanks to both the Decca engineering team (led by Peter Andry) and Ansermet's acute ear for instrumental balance. It's original companion on disc was the rarely heard Patrie Overture, recorded just 18 months later and originally issued in mono; with this newly remastered release the pioneering efforts of Decca's stereo team can be enjoyed.

Entertaining read
Format: Kindle
I wanted to educate myself on some of the issues that are presented in this book. If you're looking for just factual case-law and supreme court decisions this is not the book you're looking for. This book presents the cases in a story and gives a lot of detail about what went on in the lives of the people involved in these lawsuits outside of the courtroom. The only thing that I wish would have been talked about in greater detail would be a more in-depth look at the opinions and reasons from the justices that were not voting in favor of the plaintiffs.

Excellent Details
Format: Kindle
If you're like me, you've probably either never heard of these cases or heard about them in only the broadest of strokes. For remedying that, this book is excellent. Thomas provides a detailed account of how these complaints came to be, how they wended their way through the cases, and why they are important in terms of outcome and legal precedent. This is a book that I'm glad to have read and one that I would highly recommend to others.

engrossing, revealing, shocking, fascinating -- 10 gritty women who won big cases at great personal loss
Format: Kindle
Thankfully, women no longer have to pay more for retirement plans, and get lower payouts, than men. Amazing how many different, inventive the ways were in the 1960's to keep women out of jobs. Bless Title VII and the attorneys and clients who fought these battles; we stand on their shoulders. The saddest part is the update, at the end of the book showing how protections against gender discrimination in the workplace have weakened in recent years. In particular, it has become difficult, or nearly impossible, to prove that a hostile work environment exists so long as employers pay lip service to certain ideas and practices and hide what's really going on--which we working women KNOW still goes on, unfortunately.

Entertaining, personal history of landmark cases
Format: Hardcover
Amazing look behind the scenes at the people (plaintiffs and lawyers) who made equality for women at work a reality. Compelling, heartwarming, and educational - should be required reading for anyone who holds a job in 21st century America - both to learn how far we've come and to see the ways in which we need to continue the fight for equality at work.
