A sociological study of how the birth of first and second children affects parents. It uses in-depth interviews with 20 couples taken during the third, sixth, and ninth month after the birth of a child, to monitor changes in the marriage, sex-roles, and attitudes of the parents, and to explore the social context in which they occurred.
`The authors point out (and this reviewer readily agrees) that several things make this book unique. First, it is grounded in sociological theory...Second, the book is about early parenthood from the parental perspective...Last, the study explores both first- and second-time parenthood.′ -- Contemporary Sociology, March 1982, Vol 11 No 2
`This book is unique in many ways...would best be used by the secondary school educators as a curriculum background resource for parenting units or courses...and excellent for educated couples considering parenthood′ -- Canadian Home Economics Journal, Vol 33 No 2, Spring 1983
