Book Synopsis Engendering Business by : Angel Kwolek-Folland
Book excerpt: Winner of the Sierra Prize from the Western Association of Women Historians In Engendering Business, Angel Kwolek-Folland challenges the notion that neutral market forces shaped American business, arguing instead for the central importance of gender in the rise of the modern corporation. She presents a detailed view of the gendered development of management and male-female job segmentation, while also examining the role of gender in such areas as architectural space, office clothing, and office workers' leisure activities.
