Kerri Lynn Stone (Florida International University)

Panes of the Glass Ceiling

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

More than fifty years of civil rights legislation and movements have not ended employment discrimination. This book reframes the discourse about the "glass ceiling" that women face by exploring unspoken beliefs underlying workplace behaviour and failures of the law that create the glass ceiling's "panes" and "pains."
