Review
"This book makes a considerable contribution to an understanding of gender within thelabour market." - Institute of Health Education "...a welcome addition to a growing bodyof literature on the gendering and sexualising of work, labour markets and organizations and is likely to be valuable to those wishing to follow key developments in feminist theorisations of the labour market." - Sociology "...an especially provocative reminder that gendering of jobs is potentially an active, replicable process which could happen at management levels or be processes that managers collude in as they create other jobs." - Management Learning "...represents a significant contribution to theliterature on gender and the labour market." - Canadian Review of Sociology & Anthropology
