First published in 1977, Rosabeth Moss Kanter's landmark sociological study, Men and Women of the Corporation, presents an incisive portrait of corporate life by examining the interlocking roles of managers, secretaries, wives, and opportunity-seekers within a single large industrial organisation. Through meticulous fieldwork and razor-sharp analysis, Kanter uncovers the structural forces — not individual personalities — that dictate who rises, who stagnates, and who remains invisible within the hierarchies of American business.\n\nA foundational text in both organisational sociology and gender studies, Men and Women of the Corporation argues that behaviours long attributed to personal weakness or feminine temperament are, in fact, rational responses to blocked opportunity and powerlessness. Kanter's prose is rigorous yet accessible, weaving sociological theory with vivid human observation to produce a work that challenges readers to question every assumption they hold about merit, ambition, and institutional power. Awarded the C. Wright Mills Award upon its release, this book remains as urgent and revelatory today as the day it was written — a masterwork that will permanently alter the way you see any organisation you have ever walked into.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203308069083,"sku":"2026200013206-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/3a430b41-47f1-414c-8e35-2a5ea8676d29.png?v=1788147758","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200013206-secondhand-men-and-women-of-the-corporation","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
