Sommario/riassunto

This book fills a much-needed niche in NIOM and is a valuable addition to the library of those specialties and a useful tool for practitioners. The book will be a frequently referenced textbook for all professionals in NIOM, who will find this book invaluable. By referencing to the book, I believe that neurophysiology trainees and technologists will gain much insight into the operation of NIOM; surgeons and anesthesiologists will appreciate what the NIOM may offer in improving surgical outcomes; and the laboratory managers will find materials that will help them set up laboratory policies, pro

Sommario/riassunto

Across the Americas and Europe, the family has changed and marriage is in retreat. To answer the question of what's driving these changes and how they impact social and economic inequality, progressives have typically focused on the economic causes of changing family structures, whereas conservatives tend to stress cultural and policy roots. In this illuminating book, an international group of scholars revisit these issues, offering competing and contrasting perspectives from left, center, and right, while also adding a third layer of analysis: namely, the role of gender - changes in women's roles, male employment patterns, and gendered family responsibilities - in driving family change across three continents. Unequal Family Lives: Causes and Consequences in Europe and the Americas adds richness and depth to our understanding of the relationship between family and economics in the United States, Europe, and Latin America.
