Gender and the Restructured University: Changing Management and Culture in Higher Education.
Brooks, Ann, Ed.; Mackinnon, Alison, Ed.
This collection explores the impact of globalization and organizational change on academic institutions and their staff.

The chapters of part 1, "Restructuring Global Knowledge," are: (1) "Restructuring Bodies of Knowledge" (Ann Brooks); and (2) "Women Leaders in the Restructured University" (Jill Blackmore and Judyth Sachs). Part 2, "Gendered Work Cultures," contains: (3) "Academia, Management, and Men: Making the Connections, Exploring the Implications" (Jeff Hearn); and (4) "Globalization and Gendered Work Cultures in Universities" (Jan Currie and Bev Thiele). Part 3, "Women Managing Change," contains: (5) "Managing Equity: Mainstreaming and 'Diversity' in Australian Universities" (Carol Bacchi); (6) "Managing Innovatively" (Robyn Munford and Sylvia Rumball); (7) "Fighting the Pipeline Fallacy" (Margaret Allen and Tanya Castleman); and (8) "Managing within the 'Malestrom'" (Eleanor Ramsay).
