Sinopsis

Politicians continually tell us that anyone can get ahead. But is that really true? This important, best-selling book takes readers behind the closed doors of elite employers to reveal how class affects who gets to the top.Friedman and Laurison show that a powerful &lsquo,class pay gap&rsquo, exists in Britain&rsquo,s elite occupations. Drawing on 175 interviews across four case studies - television, accountancy, architecture, and acting &ndash, they explore the complex barriers facing the upwardly mobile. á This is a rich, ambitious book that demands we take seriously not just the glass but also the class ceiling.
