- Description
- Based on previously unknown archive materials this publication explores the meaning of the term ‘incapable of work’ over a hundred years (1911–present). Amongst many subject areas, the author explores women’s roles in the domestic sphere and how these were used to consider their capacity for work in the labour market.
