Jacobs has brought together the work of a number of progressive feminist writers who theorize gender, race, diversity research, the social construction of women and work, ethnicity and class. The essays in this reader are focused on issues relating to gender equality in workspaces in society. The editor has gathered essays from well-known and established social scientists. Among them are Pat and Hugh Armstrong, Himani Bannerji, Chris Bruckert, and Tania Das Gupta. The result is a stimulating collection that focuses on health-care workers, teachers, strippers, wageless workers and women who are "hidden from view." The collection explores the construction of gender, the selection of careers and the differential in work conditions and wages.
