FOX, BONNIE.
Family Bonds and Gender Divisions: Readings in the Sociology of the Family.
Toronto: Canadian Scholars Press, 1988. 0921627262. 1st edition. "The first third of the collection focuses on cross-cultural and historical material, looking at the issues of alternative conceptualizations of the family and at the universality of the family as a structure, as well as the family in foraging societies, feudalsim and early capitalism. The remander deals with issues that pertain to contemporary families: gender society socialization, love, sexuality, child bearing, child rearing, housework, two-career marriages, divorce and family violence. in each case readings have been chosen that illuminate the issues while provoking the student to rethink his or her prejudices and naive understanding of family life." Pp.536, owner's name to title page and final page, spotting to closed page edges (not affecting pages internally). Paperback. G+.
