The Politics Of Parenthood: Child Care, Women's Rights, And The Myth Of The Good Mother
Book information
Description
A distinguished scholar presents a landmark historical perspective on parenthood in America. This trailblazing book suggests that behind the rhetoric of maternal responsibility are issues of power, resources, and control. "Berry's book could be a significant impetus for corporate executives and political leaders, conservatives and liberals, and mothers and fathers to support parental involvement that is gender-free."—The Washington Post Book World.
