"Hard Labour" examines changes in family practices and paid work in the 21st century. Focusing principally on highly qualified women who combine the mothering of very young children with employment, it makes a valuable contribution to current debates. Unlike other books in the field that focus on one gender only, this innovative book also takes into account the views of fathers, making it a rounded study of family practice in the new millennium. It is an essential reading for those interested in sociology, family policy, family studies, women's or gender studies, and the sociology of management/employment
