"The idea that managers and professionals are exchanging places
is a novel way of thinking about the changes that are occurring in
the division of labor in elite occupations and the shift toward
less bureaucratized organizations." Arne L. Kalleberg,
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
"This book does a good job integrating organizational theory and
arguing for a new interpretation of the nature of work in elite
occupations. It should be particularly valuable to those who study
organizations, work, and social inequality." Choice
"Professional Work, organized into nine chapters, provides an instructive historical and theoretical overview of managerial and professional work. [...] this book is thoughtful and creative in its use of existing data sources" Kevin D. Henson, University of Chicago, Contemporary Sociology 31, 5
