Abstrakt: This book review discusses "Rethinking Gender Inequalities in Organizations" by Penny Dick. The book focuses on the issue that work performed by women often lacks social value and status, and explores the socio-economic processes that influence the way we value different skills and occupations. The author argues that gender inequalities arise through social processes and conditions that can be experienced by anyone, regardless of their gender or social category. The review suggests that the book provides a convincing explanation of the reasons for gender inequalities, but acknowledges that achieving change will require a more radical approach to economics and the valuation of different skills and occupations.
