内容説明

An analysis of the nature of the relationship between women and paid work in both modernizing and industrial countries. In a number of country case studies, contributors explore health, education and family issues; offer comparative perspectives on women's roles and status; and provide information about the characteristics of paid work and the workplace, including occupations and earnings, technological change, pay equity, work schedules, cooperatives and the informal labour market.
