Description

Penguin, New York, 2003, 1st pr thus.  ISBN 0-14-200292-5.  Trade soft cover, 322 pages including Appendix, Notes, Selected Reading, and Index.  Very good; light edge and cover wear, remainder mark; interior clean and unmarked with tanned pages.  ‘When The Second Shift was first published in 1989, it was hailed as “a scream in the dark” (Seattle Post Intelligencer) and a brilliant, urgently needed analysis … of the working woman who ‘has it all’” (Betty Friedan).  Now, in the twenty-first century, The Second Shift remains as important and relevant as when it was first published.  As the majority of women entered the workforce, sociologist and Berkeley professor Arlie Hochschild was one of the first to talk about what really happened in dual-career households.  Many people were amazed to find that women were still responsible for the majority of child care and housework even though they also worked outside the home.  Now, in this updated edition with a new introduction by the author, we discover how much things have, and have not, changed for women today.’ (from rear wrap)
