By illuminating how professional societies' policy choices are embedded within and shaped by economic and political contexts, Wysong refines prevailing new class interpretations of professionals' interests where policy reforms are concerned. This book will be of particular concern to scholars and researchers involved with medical sociology, the sociology of work, complex organizations, social change, and occupational health policy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Earl Wysong\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 031328475X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780313284755\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Praeger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/30\/1992\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.72h x 6.12w x 0.79d","brand":"Earl Wysong","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48216482349311,"sku":"9780313284755","price":80.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2a834dc4-c3b7-47a6-b39f-a82f8fa44634.jpg?v=1771991288","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/high-risk-and-high-stakes-earl-wysong-9780313284755","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
