"Women Working" is a collection of readings by 15 academics and one attorney, all involved in teaching, re- search, and writing in the areas of economics, women's studies, sociology, and law. The credentials of the contributors indicate a high level of expertise in the study of the condition of women in American society. The book developed out of a common recognition among the editors and authors of a need for a "central reference" to support course work on "sex roles, women in the economy, the sociology of occupations, and industrial sociology" as well as course work in "management and labor, social stratification, marriage and the family, social problems, and social theory." To develop such a resource is a tall order, but the authors have admirably succeeded, concisely addressing the many factors necessary to understand the work women do and why they do it. According to the editors, the purpose of the book is to describe "women's market and non-market activities, their rewards, problems, in addition to original empirical and theoretical analysis of the work roles of women."

This book provides an account of research in action and debate in progress in a selection of areas of childhood social development where significant progress is underway. The chapters are written by an eminent group of British and American developmental psychologists each of whom has made primary contributions to research in the areas covered in the volume. The contributors were invited to reflect upon the current scene in social developmental research and to develop their own distinctive viewpoint and contribution to the field. The book addresses issues in social development from infancy to adolescence. The topics examined include: interactions between biological and social factors in social development; sex role development; the development of friendships; the role of peer interaction in social and cognitive development; and the influence of cultural artifacts in the social and cognitive development of children. Although each chapter is concerned with a different aspect of social development, there are a number of themes that recur throughout the volume. One concerns the nature of social development: the acquisition of social understanding and the development of social skills are not individual achievements of children reared in isolation. Rather, they are the outcome of social processes in which the developing child engages, sometimes in an unequal partnership with experienced adults; at other times in more equal partnership with peers and playmates. In both cases the development change is a constructive outcome. A second recurrent theme is a concern for developmental researchers to take fuller account than they may traditionally have done of the nature of the cultural settings in which social development occurs. Different cultures have different customs and artifacts, and these can constrain development in different ways. This issue is considered throughout the book and is the specific focus of the final chapter.
