- catalog abstract ""Reeves surveys the structural obstacles to women's advancement and argues that successful women executives threaten their male counterparts and patriarchal culture, who respond by punishing them. Unlike other studies on the topic, Reeves explains the mechanisms by which gender discrimination operates - the dynamics of discrimination and the processes by which women in business are marginalized, subordinated, and excluded. Her book combines theory with first-person, case study accounts of 10 women who were suppressed, then fired. The result is a compelling argument that, despite claims to the contrary, the glass ceiling still exists. Patriarchy has simply devised subtle new ways to circumvent the legal remedies meant to crack through it."--Jacket.".
