- Description
- Author - a former Bell System employee - presents a hundred- year history of telephone operators and their work processes, from the invention of the telephone in 1876 to the period immediately before the break-up of the American Telephone and Telegraph Company in 1984. The book shows how, as technology changed from a manual process to a computerized one, sexual and racial stereotypes enabled management to manipulate both the workers and the workplace.

- Description
- The book offers a reconsideration of the role railroads and streetcars played in transforming the conditions of individual liberty at the dawn of the 20th century. The author discusses the law of accidental injury, nervous shock, and racial segregation in public transit. It captures Americans' journey from a cultural and legal ethos celebrating manly independence and autonomy to one that recognized and sought to protect the individual against the corporate power, modern technology and modern urban space.

- Description
- McFeely shows how cooking evolved during the twentieth century as new challenges arose. Still tied to the kitchen, women found that instead of simply providing sustenance for the household, they now had to master more complex cooking techniques, the knowledge of 'ethnic' cuisines, the science of nutrition, the business of consumerism, and the art of keeping their families happy and healthy.
