Clare Walsh explores the experience of women currently involved in linguistic domains traditionally monopolised by men and considers the impact women have made on the norms in language that govern public sphere discourse (eg in politics, professional occupations and organisations - pressure/lobby groups). Case studies are used throughout the book to illustrate the analysis of topics which include - the constraints operating on women who have negotiatied themselves public sphere roles and the strategies of resistance women develop in order to overcome these contraints.
