"Twenty-first century women work in offices, shops, and even
factories at rates almost as high as men's. Yet most women are
still under men when it comes to pay, authority, and autonomy.
Charles and Grusky document the tenacity of gender inequality and
the crucial role that occupational segregation plays in
perpetuating it."2;Michael Hout, Professor of Sociology, University
of California, Berkeley
0;With great technical proficiency, Charles and Grusky lay bare the
patterns of occupational segregation shared by all affluent
economies: women are over-represented in nonmanual (and men in
manual) jobs but in both sectors men still hold better jobs.
Everyone who theorizes about gender and class should study these
authors' insights.1;2;Paula England, Stanford University
