..".the essays in this collection ... will be useful in gender and women's studies courses ... [and] will stimulate further analyses of inequities within the home, as well as discussions of the experiences of transgender feminist parents not represented in this volume." -- Feminist Formations

"Feminism, political activism, late-in-life (either single or married), professional, heterosexual, African American, Native American, or lesbian mothering--if any of these topics is your area of research or personal interest, then you want to read this book ... Reading it will stimulate your thinking about motherhood and feminist mothering from a number of diverse angles." -- Journal of Family and Consumer Sciences

"Andrea O'Reilly has assembled a collection of essays that explores the challenges of twenty-first-century motherhood in relation to the legacies of Second Wave feminism. With intelligence and passion, its contributors offer a variety of nuanced perspectives on women's efforts to act simultaneously on behalf of children and on behalf of themselves. Taken together, these essays remind us that carework--the work that mothers do--must be recognized as foundational to our political and personal well-being." -- Meredith W. Michaels, coauthor of The Mommy Myth: The Idealization of Motherhood and How It Has Undermined All Women
