Review

"Jude Browne has produced an important and exciting study of the sociology of modern Britain. In this meticulously researched and superbly conceived book, Browne examines the experience of sex segregation in the labour market employing original research from a study of the occupational structure of the BBC. Testing and discarding standard theories of gender inequalities, Browne argues convincingly that existing definitions and explanations of occupational sex segregation are inadequate as accounts of our empirical knowledge about enduring gender inequalities. She argues that extant policy and legal frameworks are poor responses to these entrenched inequalities and new ideas to understand core ideas about gender equality and gender justice. This valuable study will be required reading for students and scholars of modern British society and politics." Professor Desmond King, University of Oxford, UK "An exemplary case history of an exemplary institution. Examining the model policies of the BBC for equity and justice amongst its employees, Jude Browne asks if there is something larger than the best intentions and practices which continues to prevent these policies being realised between women and men. When everything is done to implement sex equality why cannot it be achieved? With this brilliant grasp of a varied theoretical framework and unique engagement of empirical material, this book is mandatory reading for all who want to change the future." Professor Juliet Mitchell, University of Cambridge, UK
