Minbaeva, Copenhagen Business School, Denmark The Research Handbook
on Women in International Management is a carefully designed
collection of contributions that provides a thorough and nuanced
discussion of how women engage in international management. It also
offers important insights into emerging and new areas of research
warranting future consideration. The Handbook commences by
reviewing the history of the literature, from the development of
the discipline through the current state of research, and
progresses into examinations of how socio-cultural and
organizational issues affect women, with reference to work/life
issues and family. Matters affecting women in international
management and work in diverse areas of the globe are then
examined, including the Arab Middle East, East Asia, South America,
and Western and Central Europe. Next, themes including
self-initiated expatriation, women in non-traditional families, and
women in the mining industry are explored. The Handbook concludes
with a few explicitly reflective chapters by academics working
within the field. Contributors: M. Baker, F.L. Cooke, M. Cowling,
