Global Dimensions of Gender and Carework

"The book is highly readable and a valuable resource for understanding the global hierarchies of inequality."CHOICE "Zimmerman, Litt, and Bose have brought together some of the seminal work done on a little-attended aspect of globalization, the changing roles of women and the changing patterns of carework. More than that, they have organized these materials and provided illuminating integrative essays of their own in a way that brings theoretical coherence to the diverse phenomena discussed. This book makes a large contribution to the field of women's studies, and it provides an excellent teaching resource."
