Bücher der Reihe Women and Work: A Research and Policy Series

With the emphasis on women from non-white or working-class backgrounds, this title assesses women's abilities to control their work environments, how they see themselves and their options in the work place. It addresses such topics as the integration of work and family, and women's vision of their own work and consciousness as employees.

This book traces the experiences of women managers using a wide-ranging, interdisciplinary analysis. Top scholars and researchers begin by examining historical and global perspectives, continue with individual and organizational issues such as ethnicity, health, and personal and family lifestyles, and conclude by exploring future trends in the issues of job discrimination and the restructuring of organizations from a feminist perspective. Each section concludes with a commentary from a leading authority.
