Reviews

Doing IT: Women Working in Information Technology is a provocative and original account of women's employment in IT in Canada. The power of this book lies in Schott-Dixon's thoughtful exploration of deceptively simple questions such as what is IT work and what are the chief features of so-called hybrid occupations? Doing IT offers a level of sophistication, dept and clarity found rarely in accounts of women's encounters with technology -- it is essential reading for anyone interested in the future of women's employment in Canada. -- Dr. Leah F. Vosko, Canada Research Chair in Feminist Political Economy, York University
