Meals In Science And Practice: Interdisciplinary Research And Business Applications, Anthony Worsley

Faculty of Health and Behavioural Sciences - Papers (Archive)

This is the book for those of us who subscribe to the maxim ‘People don’t eat nutrients, they eat food!’ Underlying all of our nutrition science is the simple fact that people eat combinations of foods at certain times during the day in a multitude of cultural, social and physical contexts.

Professional Women: The Continuing Struggle For Acceptance And Equality, Pearl Jacobs, Linda Schain Jan 2009

Professional Women: The Continuing Struggle For Acceptance And Equality, Pearl Jacobs, Linda Schain

Criminal Justice Faculty Publications

During the past fifty years, the situation of professional women has changed dramatically. Women have expanded their career aspirations. They are no longer confined to traditional female fields such as education or nursing. We have seen the integration of women into previously male dominated fields such as accounting, medicine, law, etc. Integration; however, does not necessarily mean acceptance and equality nor does it mean that the stress created by work-family conflict has been resolved. This paper will examine some of the issues that continue to plague women as they attempt to progress in their professional fields.
