Book excerpt: The Gender Division of Welfare is an ambitious study that raises interesting and important questions concerning the relationship among welfare states, gender differentiation and social inequality.

Mary Daly examines the British and German welfare states showing that both countries differ markedly in the measures they have instituted in various areas.
