Description
  1. viii, 281 p.; 23 cm.
Summary
  1. Women's unpaid work at home has not concerned social justice theorists, despite the fact that it renders women vulnerable to exploitation and hence injustice. By discussing conceptions of work and women's work, this study develops a theory of women's work as care, and a new ethic of care.
