Exploring Gender at Work: Multiple Perspectives
This collective volume was created through a wonderful collaboration of 39 authors, representing five global continents and a wide range of academic and practical disciplines. It reviews gender from the standpoints of inequality in multiple regards, such as through discrimination, stereotyping, maintaining prejudice through oftentimes longstanding, unconscious biases, industry influences, but also based on cultural, religious, political, and other boundaries. These many different gender evaluations actually affect human beings in a troublesome way in the place where they aim to perform and excel: their workplace. In order to provide a broad survey of the topic, this book consists of four parts: (I) A Historical Overview, (II) Contemporary Gender-Based Issues, (III) Gender Approaches Across the Disciplines, and (VI) Cultural Influences and Gender.
