Ebook: The Politics Of Parenthood: Child Care, Women's Rights, And The Myth Of The Good Mother

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.
