Surveying the literature on sex and gender in organizations, Powell (management, U. of Connecticut) and Graves (management, Clark U.) discuss the historical transition in female/male work relationships, how sex and gender differences affect behavior in the workplace, decision making in the establishment of employment relationships, the impact of gender on the work team, the effects of gender stereotypes and sexist attitudes on work relationships between managers and subordinates, and the differences between career and life patterns typically followed by men and women. The final chapter offers the authors' own solutions to problems identified in earlier chapters. Annotation c. Book News, Inc.,Portland, OR
