Know about the book -

Gendered Practices in Working Life is written by Tuula Heiskanen and published by Springer. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1349252859 (ISBN 10) and 9781349252855 (ISBN 13).

Gendered distinctions and differences in working life are produced by often hidden practices. What are they like? How do they work? The book creates, through its multidisciplinary approach and rich empirical data, a wide perspective on gendered practices in working life, from the level of labour market structures to the personal experiences of women and men. Some taken-for-granted assumptions of gender in social sciences and feminist research are challenged by a view through the 'Nordic window'.
