註釋This book challenges the conventional view that World War Two was an important episode in the progress of women's rights in Canada. The nature of women's war service in both civilian and military capacities reveals how wartime conditions reflected but did not really change the fundamental social and economic discrimination against women. This incisive account of women in the war years clearly shows how illusory and temporary the apparent elevation of the status of women was as both government and many women saw their work as temporary replacement for the men who would return. Dr. Pierson describes how femininity, not equality, determined how women fared in the workplace during World War Two.
