Reviews

“This review relate to the current debates about the lack of fit between the work and non-work roles that women, often simultaneously, adopt. … an empirical contribution to our understanding of how women are experiencing employment in light of their preferences and non-work roles. … book makes suggestions for how organizations and society need to adapt to support women’s choices, skills and abilities.” (Karen S. Markel, Work, Employment and Society, Vol. 30 (1), 2016)
