Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Professional Women Upon Their Professions That the imperfections are still both numerous and apparent I have the misfortune to be aware. Beside the object of reflecting current professional thought in a way that should rather suggest that thought than exhaust it, I have implied that I had another hope. And it was principally for the realisation of this other hope that I chose the conversational method, despite the difficulties that I knew must attend it. I had before me the image of some girl who has not yet found her niche in the world. The world is before her where to choose; but she would give much gratitude to anyone who would guide her in her choice. But somehow there appears to be no mentor at hand - no one even who can offer almost any suggestion. A loneliness of spirit falls upon her that is all the more intense because of the very excess of guidance with which her infant and scholastic years were surrounded. Then she was told every moment what was the duty of that moment; now there is upon such matters a silence that may be felt. True, that perhaps she need not do anything. Let her gather the rosebuds. By all means let her gather them. Let her not miss one, unless it be that some other may pluck it. To be sweet-and-twenty, and to live romance - what is the use of bringing the distinctions of committee rooms and examiners' boards into terms of comparison with the great privilege of youth?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Careers for Women This compilation is the result of the demand for vocational information to help the youth of the country in its choice of a life career. The value of this form of vocational guidance lies in its power to prepare one for the responsibilities of economic life by making the facts about the various means of livelihood available. Greater knowledge creates greater efficiency and human happiness, as it tends to eliminate the extra and unnecessary time spent in discovering the best place for one's ability. Lack of knowledge of the opportunities for work results in a waste of time and energy which reacts on production and on society itself. Even though the youth may never intend to work, a knowledge of the opportunities for service is of great social value. It is a function of education to contribute to human efficiency in economic production and this is being accomplished largely through broad vocational education. Modern educators realize the need for vocational education, and the result is that vocational guidance and vocational training are being introduced into all branches of school life. Grade schools, high schools, and colleges are appointing vocational advisors as members of their staffs, whose duties involve counseling with individuals to help them discover their potentialities and influence them to continue their schooling when necessary so that they may become better fitted for work. The large numbers withdrawing before they reach the secondary schools do so because of lack of interest rather than economic pressure. This throws the responsibility on those who create school curricula. Our school programme should be fitted to the needs of the community.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Employments of Women: A Cyclopaedia of Woman's Work Much of the verbal information I give is impartial, as it has been given by those with whom I talked in a casual way, they not know ing I had any object in view; and frequently it was done in a respect ful, yet ofi'-hand way, when making purchases. I have often bought articles merely for an excuse to talk with people, and gain informa tion on their occupations. I desire to present to those interested a clear and succinct view of the condition of business in the United States, the openings for entering into business, the vacancies women may fill and the crowded marts they may avoid, the qualifications needed for a selected pursuit, and the pursuits to which they are best adapted; also the probable result pecuniarily of each calling honorably pursued: in short, it is intended as a business manual for women. I wish to make it a practical work - useful, not ornamental. It is more a bringing together of facts, than a presentation of ideas - more a book of research than re ection. Yet the statements given are important, not merely as facts, but as being suggestive of things essential to or connected with occupations. The limits of each subject must necos sarily be short, as I wish to form a volume to come within the reach of every one that would desire a copy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Employments of Women: A Cyclopaedia of Woman's Work At no time in our country's history have so many women been thrown upon their own exertions. A million of men are on the battle field, and thousands of women, formerly dependent on them, have lost or may lose their only support. Some of the mothers, wives, sisters, and daughters of soldiers, may take the vacancies created in business by their absence - others must seek new channels of labor.

Download or read book The Architect Chapters in the History of the Profession written by Berkeley Spiro Kostof Professor of Architectural History University of California and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1977-01-06 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did architects get to be architects in any given period in history? How were they trained? How did they find their clients and communicate with them? What did society think of them?. Spiro Kostof's The Architect, a collection of essays by historians and architects, explores these and other intriguing questions about the profession of architecture. The first book in more than fifty years to survey the profession from its beginnings in ancient Egypt to the modern day, it is the most complete synthesis to date of our knowledge of how the architect's profession developed. Included are a major study of the Beaux-Arts, a vivid memoir by the distinguished architect Josephy Esherick, and an excellent chapter on women which demostrates how the ethic of professionalism has contributed to the exploitation of women in this as in many other professions. The Architect places the current dilemma about the architect's role in society in historical perspective and offers a good overview of the development of one of the world's oldest professions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Influence of Women in the Profession of Medicine: Address Given at the Opening of the Winter Session of the London, School of Medicine for Women In the short time that we meet together to-day, I will ask you to let me dwell upon the way in which the most beneficial influence of women in the medical profession may be exercised. I wish also to point out certain dangers, as well as advantages, with which medical study is now surrounded. The avenues by which all may enter into the profession are now so much more widely thrown open, that there is little difficulty in the way of any man or woman who may wish to acquire a legal right to practise medicine. In Paris, all the public medical institutions, both college and hospital, are thrown open to students without distinction of sex. Not only as ordinary students, but as internes and externes, sex is no longer regarded there as a barrier to opportunity and position. The democratic principle is everywhere steadily gaining ground, and the individual allowed to try his strength in the great battle of life. Large numbers of women are taking advantage of this wider individual liberty to enter the medical profession.

Download or read book Career and Family written by Claudia Goldin and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2023-05-09 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, the author builds on decades of complex research to examine the gender pay gap and the unequal distribution of labor between couples in the home. The author argues that although public and private discourse has brought these concerns to light, the actions taken - such as a single company slapped on the wrist or a few progressive leaders going on paternity leave - are the economic equivalent of tossing a band-aid to someone with cancer. These solutions, the author writes, treat the symptoms and not the disease of gender inequality in the workplace and economy. Here, the author points to data that reveals how the pay gap widens further down the line in women's careers, about 10 to 15 years out, as opposed to those beginning careers after college. She examines five distinct groups of women over the course of the twentieth century: cohorts of women who differ in terms of career, job, marriage, and children, in approximated years of graduation - 1900s, 1920s, 1950s, 1970s, and 1990s - based on various demographic, labor force, and occupational outcomes. The book argues that our entire economy is trapped in an old way of doing business; work structures have not adapted as more women enter the workforce. Gender equality in pay and equity in home and childcare labor are flip sides of the same issue, and the author frames both in the context of a serious empirical exploration that has not yet been put in a long-run historical context. This book offers a deep look into census data, rich information about individual college graduates over their lifetimes, and various records and sources of material to offer a new model to restructure the home and school systems that contribute to the gender pay gap and the quest for both family and career. --
