- Interpersonal relations and culture, Families, History, Privatleben
From the famed author of the bestselling The Second Shift and The Time Bind, this book is a pathbreaking look at the transformation of private life in our for-profit world. The family has long been a haven in a heartless world, the one place immune to market forces and economic calculations, where the personal, the private, and the emotional hold sway.
