"This newly revised edition of Reeves’ book offers teachers of gender and work courses a comprehensive, well-researched, and readable textbook. Reeves takes on a series of formidable challenges to create a single text that contains everything you need to teach a course on gender and work successfully. She includes a review of the impact of the various waves of the feminist movement, an understanding of the relevant theoretical perspectives, an overview of the pertinent legislation, the historical and contemporary statistical data on gender and work, real world case studies of women in the workplace, as well as practical advice for college women who plan to enter the business world. Reeves' compelling book is the perfect pedagogical tool for teaching and learning in gender and work courses taught by faculty in business, management, women’s studies, or sociology programs."
