This book takes a critical look at the impact of globalization as it relates to educating women for work. It explores current efforts in a number of nations to make vocational education and training gender equitable.

"I would place this book at the top of the spectrum of thinking in its field....It will contribute significantly to the field of vocational education and gender equity."

"The topic is certainly of long-standing concern to a segment of those involved in vocational and technical education both in the U.S. and abroad. This book definitely adopts a social justice perspective but is in line with the approach taken by scholars from this tradition....It is unique in its approach and content....and will fill a current gap in the literature about gender equity and workforce education and development."
