Gender, choice, and commitment

Description:

This book is the first full-length discussion of women's experiences in the solicitors profession in the UK. It provides an account which is grounded in historical research and a contemporary research study. The authors explore this material to analyse both women's own experiences and the mainstream culture and structure of the profession. The analysis draws on perspectives from feminist jurisprudence to the sociology of the professions to shed light on the processes which support women's continued subordination in employment as lawyers.
