Two Steps Forward, One Step Back

Dahlia Moore (Ph.D. Tel Aviv University) is a professor and the Head of the Graduate Program, Department of Behavioral Sciences at the College of Management Academic Studies in Israel. Her recent publications include A Bridge Over Troubled Water: Political, Economic and Social Attitudes (with Salem Aweiss. Greenwood Publishing Group, 2007) and "Job Concessions, Role Conflict and Work Satisfaction in Gender-typical and -atypical Occupation: The Case of Israel" which appeared in Gender Issues in March 2009.

"Delving into the historical realities of one specific society, Israel, Dahlia Moore enlarges our understanding of the interplay of ideologies and reality. Two Steps Forward, One Step Back presents an engaging and in-depth analysis of the forces that have sometimes fostered and more often impeded equality between the sexes in Israel. The book will provide fascinating reading to anyone who wishes to study the status of women—in Israel or around the world."
