'Uneven Rewards' brings together major studies of workplace relations and behaviour from the distinguished labour economist Alison L Booth. Over more than three decades, Booth has forged a distinctive intellectual path combining a strong interest in the role of gender and culture on labour markets with acute expertise in data collection, and cognate social science fields and methods.With her co-authors, Booth examines the effects on men and women of evolving industrial relations' rules and contexts. She studies the changing gendered and culturally-specific nature of labour markets, and analyses the findings of a set of data-rich social experiments to reveal insights about women's and men's behaviour in labour, educational and wider social settings.Finally, Booth shares new conclusions arising from this extensive body of research. She shows how culture and nurture associated with the upbringing of boys and girls can have profound implications for educational and labour market performance and relative outcomes by gender.
