Despite the expansion of female employment over the past twenty years, women continue to be crowded into a small number of occupations which, in the main, represent low-paid jobs. This book analyzes this issue and examines one route of escape: self-employment. In the USA women have increasingly been following this path and the growth in women-only businesses is testimony to the possibilities this allows for increasing economic independence.
