Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Today's professionals, especially women, are caught in a time paradox: can they build a career and a family at the same time The Part-time Paradox explores the conflict and tension between the time demands of career and family life, and the choice of part-time work as a solution.The changing demographics of the family and the work place make it increasingly difficult for both men and women to meet the escalating time pressures facing a doctor, lawyer or manager. This book examines the social problems associated with demanding work schedules and choices, and also illustrates successful alternatives to full-time employment. It draws on interviews with attorneys in large law firms, in-house corporate counsels, and government service in order to explore the multiple dimensions of the part-time work solution.

The Part-time Paradox provides a timely overview of a growing crisis, as part-time and flex-time work arrangements increase.…
