ISBN: 9781403962362 / Angielski / Twarda / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

To understand the dilemmas faced by women concerning motherhood and work, for example, Allen argues that the problem must be examined in terms of its demographic and political development through history. Allen highlights the feminist...
