Why Men Earn More

Download or read book Why Men Earn More written by Warren Farrell and published by Amacom Books. This book was released on 2005 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bestselling author Warren Farrell contends that unequal pay for women is essentially a myth-that women are often paid less than men not because of discrimination but because men are more likely to make choices for higher pay. Clearly outlining the 25 workplace choices that affect men's and women's incomes, Farrell's analysis enables readers to weigh whether a trade-off is worth the greater pay. Such a non-PC take on a hot-button issue will raise eyebrows and hackles but the potential benefit is enormous. The Pay Paradox will give women specific, research-supported ways to earn higher pay. The book does not deny the reality of continuing discrimination against women and includes a full chapter devoted to this issue.
