Beth Reingold questions some of the conventional wisdom regarding women representing women and their interests. She does this by comparing the legislative behavior of women in the Arizona and California state legislatures in 1990, and she provides an understanding of the consequences and implications of electing women to public office. Reingold is interested in what these trends mean for the political repre- sentation of women in the United States, and it is this concern that focuses the volume.
