    On women's lack of participation on science.  "Teachers put extra

    whether its origin is biological or social.  The same could be
    done to boost the spatial ability of girls if the problems were

Fassel, Diane. _Working Ourselves to Death: The High Cost of
Workaholism, the Rewards of Recovery_.  Harper, San Francisco.  1990.
    Dedication: "This book is for all those who struggle with the
    insidious killer disease called workaholism. It is for those who
    know that facing the reality of work addiction is to meet the
    wrath of society. It is for all who long for life-giving
    workplaces and a saner society."  Sample chapters. -- Workaholism.

Hertz, Rosanna. _More Equal Than Others: Women and Men in Dual-Career
Marriages_.  University of California Press.  1986.  0-520-05804-6.
    Blurb: "...offers a provocative glimpse of changing marital styles
    among young corporate couples.  Frofessor Hertz describes with
    perception and wit the negotiations and ad hoc accommodations
    entailed as dual-career families succumb to the seduction of
    success.  This book will surely give pause to those who believe
    that ideological commitments to gender equality will stimulate or
    sustain marriage and childrearing patterns in the post-feminist
    era.  Rather, one detects the awesome power of corporations to
    shape the private lives of even the most privileged employees."

Hochschild, Arlie and Anne Machung. _The Second Shift_.  Viking Press.
1989.
    A well-reasearched look at the two-pay-check marriage, sheds a
    great deal of light on why so many men are still unwilling to
    share the housework and childcare.

Lang, Susan S.  _Women without Children: The Reasons, the Rewards, the
Regrets_. Pharos Books.  1991.  ISBN 0-89687-532-3.
    Lang examines the issue of childlessness through a series of
    interviews as well as citations from the social science
    literature.  She presents various reasons women don't have
    children, then cites the statistics on the financial and personal
    strains on a couple having children, the disproportionate amount
    of work women do for their kids, the freedom childfree living can
    bring, the fact that a majority of mothers are ambivalent about
    motherhood.  She tries to debunk stereotypes of childless women as
    selfish, lonlier in their old age, less well off financially, etc.
    While many of the older women she interviewed said they went
    through a difficult period when they realized they would remain
    childless, they all seemed to adapt well and go on to find other
    sources of satisfaction in their lives.

    Feminist critique of modern political theory that shows why and
    how, in order to include all of us, theories of justice need to

    Contains an interesting demolition of libertarian philosophy.

|Paul, Ellen Frankel.  _Equity and Gender: the Comparable Worth
|Debate_.  1990.
|    Begins by explaining how comparable worth -- or pay equity
|    imposed by law -- is a full frontal assault on the free market by
|    those who scoff at the market's ability to provide justice, and
|    argues that the free market, not the state, is the better ally of
|    feminism.

    This may be the actual reference for the next entry, which I
    couldn't find.

*Sayers, Dorothy L.  _Not Quite Human_.
    This does a very good job of showing what it would be like for men
    to be judged on the basis of their gender the way that women are.
    Although it was written a long time ago, it is unfortunately still
    quite relevant.

Schenkel, Susan, "Giving Away Success: Why Women Get Stuck and
What to Do About It"

Stephenson, June.  _The Two-Parent Family Is Not The Best_.
    The book is a fairly academic report on a survey of adults who
    were raised in a variety of circumstances: by biological parents,
    single parents and biological/step parents.  It evaluates both
    their perceptions of their happiness as children and a more
    objective evaluation of their current status as happy,
    well-adjusted adults. It presents extensive statistical reporting
    and analysis of the results of the survey.  Some interesting points:

    Children in a two-parent family were more likely to have a parent
    who used alcohol excessively (with implied negative effects) and
    who abused them physically or sexually.

    "Negative impact on children's self-esteem was affected by parents
    not spending much time with their children, and greatly affected
    by persistent family discord."

    It appears that a child is better off with a single, interested
    parent than with one interested and one disinterested parent.

    "There are also indications that children growing up in two parent
    families where the mother does not work outside the home, may
    develop excessive dependency."

    "A family with a father and a mother who does not work outside the
    home represents only 8% of the families today."

Stromberg and Harkess, eds. _Women Working: Theories and Facts in
Perspective_.  Mayfield Publications, Palo Alto, CA.  1978.

3.  Feminism and Psychology.
----------------------------

Benhabib, Seyla.  "The Generalized and Concrete Other: The
Kohlberg-Gilligan Controversy and Moral Theory" in Kittay, Eva Feder;
Meyers, Diana T., _Women and Moral Theory_, Rowman and Littlefield,
Totowa, NJ, 1987.
    Seyla Benhabib suggests that a functioning ethical system needs to
    recognize both the concrete and the generalized other in order to
    function.  She uses the Kohlberg-Gilligan controversy as a
    reference in the discussion.

Cancian, Francesca M.  _Love in America: Gender and Self-Development_.
Cambridge University Press, 1987.  ISBN: 0-521-39691-3 (trade paperback).
    Blurb: "In the last 25 years, Americans have gained considerable
    freedom in their personal lives.  Relationships are now more
    flexible, and self-development has become a primary goal for both
    men and women.  Most scholars have criticized this trend to
    greater freedom, arguing that it undermines family bonds and
    promotes selfishness and extreme independence...she [instead]
    shows that many American couples succeed in combining
    self-development with commitment, and that interdependence, not
    independence, is their ideal.  In interdependent relationships,
    love and self-development do not conflict but reinforce each other."

Chodorow, Nancy.  _The Reproduction of Mothering_.  UC Press, 1978.
    This is a psychoanalytic account of how boys and girls establish
    different gender identities.  The work focuses on the consequences
    of the fact that mothering is done by women in our society.  This
    is an academic book, which means its by no means easy-going, and
    readers who are unsympathetic to Freudian and object relations
    psychology will dismiss it out of hand. Chodorow's book is really
    the seminal work on "relational" vs. "instrumental" differences in
    wo/men--concepts that are core to later writers like Gilligan,
    etc.

Daly, Mary. _Gyn/Ecology: The Metaethics of Radical Feminism_.
Beacon Press, Boston.  1978.
    Includes sections titled. "American Gynecology. Gynocide by the

ISBN. 0-253-20533-6.
    Examines women who are often mistaken for men and discusses the
    impact on the women and reviews their childhood. An *excellent*
    book for anyone desiring to understand the differences between
    gender, gender roles and gender identity.

Fransella, Fay and Kay Frost.  _On Being a Woman_.  Tavistock
Publications, London and New York. 1977.
    A review of research on how women see themselves.  Focuses on what
    women have to say about themselves, rather than what others say
    about them.  The authors are interested in what it means to a
    woman to be a women; they also make people aware of the fact that
    it is uncommon to ask women what they think of themselves.
    Extensive bibliography.

Gilligan, Carol. _In a Different Voice: Psychological Theory and
Women's Development_.  Harvard University Press, Cambridge, MA.  1982.

    care perspective and the rights perspective in moral development.
    Gilligan also continues her research begun in
    _In a Different Voice_.

Griffin, Susan. _Woman and Nature_.  1978.
    Author gives a description of the figurines on Freud's study
    together with ironic comments on his interpretation of myth and
    irrational "rationalism".  It is a contrast of the voices of
    patriarchy with the voices of women done in a dramatic, poetic
    style.

Riger, Stephanie.  "Epistemological Debates, Feminist Voices: Science,
Social Values, and the Study of Women," in _American Psychologist_,
June 1992.
    A well-written article: Riger reviews several very important
    issues pertaining to women and social science (experimental
    psychology in particular).  She calls for "a new vision of the
    psychological study of women that construes gender as a product of
    social interaction and links women's agency with the shaping power
    of the sociocultural, historical, and political context."  Riger
    notes that an extended version of this paper will appear in
    _Psychology of Women: Biological Psychology and Social
    Perspectives_; that paper is "in preparation."

Schaef, Anne Wilson.  _Women's Reality: An Emerging Female System in the
White Male Society_.  New edition.  Harper and Row, Publishers.  1985.
ISBN: 0-86683-753-1.
    From blurb: "_Women's Reality_ is one of the few books that is
    supportive of women's changing roles without putting men down.  It
    allows men and women to see each other as friends rather than
    enemies...A brillian dissection of the psycho-social differences
    between male and female experience."

    Reprinted in _Sisterhood is Powerful_ ed Robin Morgan (1970) It
    references the earlier work of Karen Horney from 1926, and Clara
    M. Thompson from 1942, which suggests *someone* has been asking
    questions about Freudian relevance, esp. for women, for a long
    time.

Steinem, Gloria. _Revolution form Within_.
    This has been panned, and probably misjudged, as a woozy exercise
    in New Age thumb-sucking, but it is more about developing a good
    sense of self. A good thing about this book is that it keeps
    self-esteem firmly in context; she evidently recognizes that it is
    difficult to feel good about oneself if one has nothing of oneself
    to feel good about.

    psychological evidence is given to refute many myths surrounding
    women's bodies.  Originally part of Ph.D. thesis.
