- Description
- Matthews reveals the history of California's Silicon Valley. Her historical analysis of the area's development provides context for understanding the valley's more recent social, economic, and demographic changes. By casting a focus on women in local society, she examines succeeding generations of women and draws parallels and connections from one generation and type of work to another. Despite the rhetoric of the 'new' economy, gender-based wage discrimination and other inequities still persist.

- Description
- The authors endeavoured to find out by conducting in a research study on how women from various racial and ethnic backgrounds compare and contrast the attributes associated with existing power paradigms (traditional, empowerment, personal authority) with an alternate model of power - reciprocal empowerment. The book examines women's attitudes toward power in several social forums, home, job, religion, politics, and society in general. As women continue to assume positions of social leadership in increasing numbers, the dynamics of the social construction of power need to be examined.
