Overview"A discussion of knowledge about gender and organizations, this text examines gender-based inequality in organizations. It considers how sexual and social relations between women and men based on sexuality, power and control determine the cultures, structures and practices of organization as well as the experiences of men and women working in them. The study represents a decade of experience of managing change and implementing theory in public sector organizations during a period of major social, political and economic transition and analyzes the progress that has been made. It expands to make wider connections with women and trade unions in Europe and management development for women in the ""developing"" countries of Africa and Asia. It should be useful reading for students in social policy, gender studies and sociology including professionals with an interest in understanding the dynamics of the workplace."
