New Book Analyzes Contemporary Gender Disparities
August 20 2006
The Declining Significance of Gender? brings together top gender scholars in sociology and economics to make sense of the recent changes in gender inequality, and to judge whether the optimistic or pessimistic view better depicts the prospects and bottlenecks that lie ahead. Editors Francine D. Blau, Frances Perkins Professor of Industrial and Labor Relations and Labor Economics at Cornell University, Mary C. Brinton, Reischauer Institute Professor of Sociology at Harvard University, and David B. Grusky, Professor of Sociology at Stanford University, consider analytically the forces that are shaping the gender revolution.
