The book is organized in 14 chapters that cover the following: (1) women in the work force; (2) occupations of working women; (3) women's earnings and income; (4) minority women workers; (5) women business owners; (6) changing family structures and lifestyles; (7) shifting patterns in education and training; (8) the changing face of industry; (9) diversity in workstyles; (10) the aging population; (11) occupational safety and health; (12) legal rights of women workers; (13) projections of interest to women workers; and (14) progress, problems, and prospects--conclusions about women and work. Each chapter is introduced by data sketches that provide a summary of the chapter. The book is indexed. (KC)
