| Summary |
"To celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the passage of Title IX legislation, Mary Ellen Pethel has written a who's who of Title IX proponents in Tennessee. The book consists of fifty profiles in biography, interview, and vignette format, introducing Tennessee women instrumental to the passage of the Educational Amendments of 1972 and to the success of women's athletic programs thereafter. Pethel celebrates the lives and careers of household names like Pat Summitt and Candace Parker, as well as equally important forerunners such as Ann Furrow and Teresa Phillips. Introductory and concluding material discusses education and sport prior to Title IX, the legislation itself, the early controversies and implementation of Title IX, and the future of equity in sport and education"-- Provided by publisher |
