This important collection, first published in 1993, brings together
the most comprehensive analyses of women's experience in business
to date. The small business world - usually associated with men -
is unpacked to display the multiple roles played by women. Links
are made between lifestyles and business-styles, the interface
between business and family life, paid and unpaid work and changing
social and economic patterns. Throughout, the limitations of
current theory, practice and policies in underestimating the
significance of female entrepreneurship are shown. International in
perspective, and drawing on the work of leading researchers in work
and employment, this volume illuminates the hidden assumptions
underlying approaches which concern themselves only with
businessmen. It points the way to a better understanding of the
meaning of self-employment and small business enterprise in market
economies and to a more effective explanation of their role.
Originally published in 1976, Sexual Divisions and Society argues
that mainstream sociology has neglected to incorporate the notion
of sexual divisions as an integral part of its theoretical
underpinnings. It suggests that sociology has often included women
completely within the term of 'men', or as a part of their
husbands, rather than asking how and when the relationship between
the sexes is pertinent to the explanation of social structure and
behaviour. The volume is composed of papers brought together from
the 1974 British Sociological Association Conference on Sexual
Divisions.

The first full commercial release of the 1972 film based on the
play of the same name adapted and directed by Jane Arden. The film
is an exploration into the mind of a young woman marked as a
schizophrenic after suffering a mental breakdown only to find that
the cause is not due to her insanity but rather a distorted sexual
guilt constructed by the prohibitive community in which she lives.
