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.
