Mellström, Ulf ; Ericson, Mathias ; Callerstig, Anne Charlott ; Harrison, Katherine LU ; Lindholm, Kristina and Olofsson, Jennie (2016) p.1-16
Abstract

In this introduction we provide an overview of research on gender issues in the rescue services in combination with introducing the different contributions in this book. The overview is primarily concerned with three national contexts, the US, the UK and Sweden, and we focus on the most prevalent themes in the literature as well as pointing out under-researched areas. The empirical contributions in this volume draw on empirical work from Sweden, the UK and Denmark.
