Substantial Content Revisions

  1. Examines how gender has shaped the meaning and performance of work. Throughout, the book links theory and evidence—statistics that summarize work outcomes for women and men, research about the effects of workers’ sex on their jobs, and accounts of the experiences of real workers.
  2. Demonstrates the patterns of sex inequality and segregation as well as the gendered nature of contemporary workplace cultures. By putting evidence about the experiences of today’s workers in historical perspective, the author’s also highlight continuities with the past and illuminate change.
  3. Provides an extremely useful – and critical – summary of economic theories of gender differences in workplace rewards.
  4. Cartoons are scattered throughout the book to enhance the presentations with timely, humorous critiques.
