Produktbeschreibung
This book focuses on the evolution of the American
Woman Chef, her journey from the domestic sphere to
the public sphere of paid chef status, consideration
of food, power and gender and the outside influences
that have contributed to her struggles and her
successes in climbing the career ladder of a male
dominated industry. I begin from the hypothesis that
the obstacles to women''s success in professional
kitchens stem from the resonance of traditional
patriarchal and cultural attitudes toward women''s
roles in the public and private spheres. This book
attempts to demonstrate the patent falseness of this
myth and others by utilizing scientific research
journal articles, personal interviews with women
culinary professionals and a review of the social
history of women and their passage from private lives
into public participants.
