Zusammenfassung:"From the acclaimed author of Like a Mother comes an investigation into the current state of caregiving in America and an exploration of motherhood as a means of social change"--
The COVID-19 pandemic shed fresh light on a long-overlooked truth: mothering is arguable the most essential work humans do. Garbes explores assumptions about care, work, and deservedness, offering a rigorously reported look at what mother is, and can be. She contends that while the labor or raising children is devalued in America, the act of mothering offers the radical potential to create a more equitable society. -- adapted from jacket
