"Well structured, well written and enlightening … A great source of academic knowledge in the field by distinguished US researchers."Times Higher Education Supplement “Essential reading for anyone seeking a deep understanding, in an accessible style, of the causes – and methods of preventing – sex discrimination in the workplace. Students and scholars alike will both enjoy and benefit from reading this book.”Nyla R. Branscombe, University of Kansas “This is the most comprehensive treatment of sex discrimination ever published. A landmark book on a topic of vast importance.”Linda K. Stroh, Loyola University Chicago "Sex Discrimination in the Work Place is an important book and an excellent resource that should be in every library. The editors not only did a great job of identifying and recruiting a truly distinguished list of contributors, they also effectively edited. Despite the differences in contributor orientations and disciplines and the potential complexities of the material, the chapters are uniformly well written—clear, accessible and informative throughout." Springer Science “Crosby, Stockdale, and Ropp have compiled a comprehensive, practical, and research-based book. Its strength is the format.”Choice Magazine “Readers … will gain a great deal of insight into the problem from some of the top academics and practitioners working in this arena.” PsycCritiques (APA)
