"This is an exciting contribution to our understanding of gender and emotion in workplaces everywhere."--Arlie Hochschild, author of "The Second Shift" and "The Managed Heart" "As a participant observer and insightful critic of lawyers' workplaces, Jennifer Pierce gives us a richly detailed picture of sex-based inequality and the strategies necessary to address it."--Deborah L. Rhode, Director, Keck Center on Legal Ethics and the Legal Profession, Stanford University ""Gender Trials" is an important addition to the literature on gender and work. In studying each gender within different jobs (litigator, paralegal) and different jobs within each gender, Pierce uncovers the complexities and contradictions of 'doing gender' in contemporary law firms. The phrases 'Rambo litigator' and 'mothering paralegal' capture the normative and behavioral convergences of job and gender in these firms. In analysing resistance as well as compliance, and the emotional and identity costs associated with both dynamics, Pierce produces an insightful, and disturbing, picture of legal practice in our time."--Patricia Yancey Martin, Florida State University "Pierce's lively first-hand account of women and men at work in several law firms greatly expands our empirical and theoretical understanding of what it means to say that occupations and work organizations are 'gendered.'"--Miriam Johnson, University of Oregon
