"The long economic recession since the 1990s, together witht the neoliberalist political reforms, has brought not only increasing gender inequality but also disparities among women in Japan. Women have been polarized into elite and non-elite in the name of diversity and freedom of choice. Tachibanaki Toshiaki, a leading economist with a sociological wit, vividly describes the multiple realities of women based on solid statistical evidence. His analysis proves that the Japanese family myth of a workaholic businessman husband and a full-time housewife is now no longer the case." --Ueno Chizuko.
