Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The United States has the most family-hostile public policy in the developed world. Despite what is often reported, new mothers don¿t ¿opt out¿ of work. They are pushed out by discriminating and inflexible workplaces. Today¿s workplaces continue to idealize the worker who has someone other than parents caring for their children.Conventional wisdom attributes women¿s decision to leave work to their maternal traits and desires. In this thought-provoking book, Joan Williams shows why that view is misguided and how workplace practice disadvantages men¿both those who seek to avoid the breadwinner role and those who embrace it¿as well as women.
