330   $aHow do women choose between work and family commitments? And what are the causes, limits, and consequences of the "subtle revolution" in women's choices over the 1960's and 1970's? To answer these questions, Kathleen Gerson analyzes the experiences of a carefully selected group of middle-class and working-class women who were young adults in the 1970's. Their informative life histories reveal the emerging social forces in American society that have led today's women to face several difficult choices.
