Starting in Our Own Backyards: How Working Families Can Build

Starting in Our Own Backyards: How Working Families Can Build Community and Survive the New Economy

Containing interviews with more than 100 middle-class working parents in the Boston area, Bookman vividly illustrates the inherent conflicts faced by today's two-working-parent families and the often unfortunate consequences for the community. In an important departure from the ongoing debate, she offers a new paradigm for the relationship between paid and unpaid work that could invigorate both family life and the quality of civil society.
