Dangerous Ideas about Mothers edited by Camilla Nelson and Rachel Robertson

Book Description

Secondhand. Near fine condition.

This book confronts the issues that do not appear in many discussions of mothering, from divorce and over-burdened court systems, parenting children with a disability, to the big business of mummy-dom, to shifting ideas about fathers, to the increasing numbers of women who choose not to have children. It opens up a space where the taboo and unspoken can be voiced, and makes room for those marginalised by regular conversations around mothers and motherhood. (publisher blurb)
