Readable and challenging, this four-year study of three hundred middle-class and working-class couples debunks the myth of the overwrought working mother with her insensitive husband and neglected children. Drawing on extensive cross-disciplinary research, Rosalind Barnett and Caryl Rivers argue that “collaborative couples,” busy as they are, thrive in their diverse roles, and inspire competence and confidence in their children.
Rosalind C. Barnett is Senior Scholar in Residence at the Murray Research Center at Radcliffe College. Caryl Rivers is Professor of Journalism at Boston University.
