This volume considers Jill's career in light of the politics of legal education, university management, law reform and university research assessment. Each of the chapters discusses particular career achievements, hurdles faced and critical reflections on her legacy. Gender themes addressed include: agency and opportunity; approaches to management and leadership; valuing labour and contribution; authority in public life; and understanding research impact. Today only about 4% of festschrifts touch on women's careers. This festschrift includes consideration of the underbelly of women's success in a university. Successful careers do not magically unfold. Nor are they accidents. In exploring how one 'gets on with it' and what can be achieved given the chance, it is hoped that this collection can help to seed more ideas about what is possible and to keep bringing about necessary change. -- Fra forlaget
