Women in Modern Industry

"Women in Modern Industry" by B. L. Hutchins, is a study of how women fit into the workforce during a time of big industrial changes and societal shifts. It looks at the history, society, and money-related parts of women's jobs in factories and other workplaces, especially as things changed after big events like the industrial revolution and World War I. The book centers on how women in these jobs were seen, how much they earned, and how society started to view their contributions to the growing industrial world. The author starts by explaining what the book will cover, noting that the increasing role of women in the workforce has often been ignored, but that their growing importance as workers can no longer be overlooked. She lays out the goals of the book, talking about which sources she used and how she plans to tackle tough questions about what was expected of women workers in those times.
