Description

In this book, first published in 1975, the author examines the role of women in the workforce.

Despite representing a rapidly increasing section of the workforce, why are women still overwhelmingly confined to unskilled jobs?

Why do they hold such a tiny proportion of managerial and professional posts?

In answering these vital questions Ross Davies shows how women’s economic roles in pre-industrial society were modified and distorted by industrialisation; how this legacy of exploitation has affected contemporary attitudes among both men and women; and how the present situation should be seen and assessed in its proper perspective.
