Health And The Division Of Labour by Margaret Stacey, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters

Originally published in 1978, Health and the Division of Labourexamines problems and tensions experienced in health work. The papers analyse inter- and intra-occupational rivalry and consider the impact of new forms of managerial rationality upon the traditional divisions of tasks and prestige in health work. The issues raised here affect public policy in both Britain and the USA: Americans can profit from British work on the position of women in medicine, on unionisation and on managerialism, Britons can learn from Americans work on the political context of both social science and medicine, in looking at renal dialysis policy and at the problems of fieldwork in Latin America. | Health And The Division Of Labour by Margaret Stacey, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
