Reseña del editor

From the author of the acclaimed Women and Children Last comes this groundbreaking examination of the complexities of growing up female today. Noted sociologist and social critic Ruth Sidel examines the mixed messages of popular culture, the status of women and work, some of the crucial issues of child-rearing, and the meaning of the American Dream for women today--a dream that will be out of reach for many of these women without positive changes in society.
