Rethinking the Family by Barrie Thorne
By Barrie ThorneThis revised edition of the 1982 classic features eight new chapters and an updated introduction to reflect feminist thinking about the family as it has evolved over the last two decades. Situated in the context of what is often referred to as the "family crisis," the essays address issues such as the increase in divorce, employment of married women and mothers, the relationship of poverty to family structure, controversy over access to abortion, the increasing visibility of varied family forms, and debates over the very meaning of "family."
