Book Synopsis At Work in the Iron Cage by : Dana M. Britton
Book excerpt: One fifth of all correctional officers are women and this comparative analysis of men's and women's prisons identifies the factors that influence the gendering of the American workplace, a process that often leaves women in lower-paying jobs with less prestige and responsibility.
