Know about the book -

Women's Property Rights Under CEDAW is written by José E. Alvarez and published by Oxford University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0197751873 (ISBN 10) and 9780197751879 (ISBN 13).

For over 40 years, the leading international treaty body on women's rights, the Committee on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women (the CEDAW Committee), has been generating jurisprudence interpreting CEDAW's obligations that states protect the equal rights of women. This book concludes that CEDAW's re-engendering of property--although a flawed and evolving work in progress--has the potential to be transformative for the half of the planet who is more likely to be treated as property than to have any.
