(4) 4-6 Women in Sports series. This series focuses on women's contributions to the sports world, thanks largely to the profound impact of Title IX, the 1972 law mandating gender equality in education (explored in Axon's volume). Other entries highlight the accomplishments of historical and contemporary individuals, including Olympians, professional athletes, and journalists. The writing is accessible if not very exciting; brief chapters include sidebars and captioned action photos. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers these Women in Sports titles: Title IX Levels the Playing Field, Pioneers in Women's Sports, Greatest Female Athletes of All Time, Greatest Moments in Women's Sports, Women in Sports Media, and Women in the Olympics.
