This Woman's Work: Anthology 1978–1990 is a compilation box set by the English singer-songwriter Kate Bush.

Quick Facts This Woman's Work, Box set by Kate Bush ...

The two rarities discs are entitled This Woman's Work: Volume One and This Woman's Work: Volume Two (in the vinyl edition the twenty-nine tracks are spread over three LPs), and have never been released as albums separately from the box set.

Although publicised as a complete collection of Bush's works up to 1990, many tracks released during this time are missing from this collection including the Single Version Remix of "The Man with the Child in His Eyes", the Single Edit remix of "Wow", the dead-end version of "Army Dreamers" which featured on "The Whole Story" album, "Dreamtime" (the instrumental B-side of "The Dreaming" single), "Sat in Your Lap (Single Mix)", "Running Up that Hill (Instrumental Version)", "The Big Sky (Single Version)", "The Sensual World (Instrumental Version)", "The Confrontation" from the "Love and Anger" single and the Single Version Mix of "This Woman's Work". Various songs featured in films were also omitted, notably "The Magician", from the film The Magician of Lublin.

The set was not released in the US, mainly due to The Sensual World being released there by Columbia Records. [citation needed]
