"What kind of harms matter, and why? Steeped in the history of American tort law, Chamallas and Wriggins demonstrate how attitudes about race and gender run through the harms recognized - and not recognized - by American law. This book is brimming with insights about how societies do and should express what matters in assigning liability for human pain and loss." Martha Minow, Dean of the Faculty of Law, Harvard Law School
