To assemble this impeccable book, Lisa Pasolli has formulated impressive questions ... Readers ... will be interested to discover how contemporary debates over the importance of early education, and over the educational disadvantages of parents and workers who bore the consequences of the deficiencies of child care, became part and parcel of The Child Care Dilemma. -- Dominique Marshall, Carleton University * Historical Studies in Education * Much more than connecting the chronological dots (which is itself an important achievement), Pasolli provides an analytical explanation for the rather discouraging continuities that shaped decades of public debate and marginalized the childcare and employment needs of women and families ... A smart book on an issue we continue to wrestle with, and the sole monograph on the topic from a historian's perspective, it will find its way on to many bookshelves. -- Esyllt W. Jones, University of Manitoba * BC Studies * Reading Pasolli's extensively documented book is a sobering exploration of twentieth and twenty-first century policies guided by familiar rhetoric about why mothers partnered with male breadwinners should not work and why mothers without breadwinners should work (in low-wage jobs) to redeem themselves ... In the end, Pasolli's history of childcare policy in British Columbia tells us that out-of-home childcare is a radical claim that requires a paradigmatic shift in thinking about working mothers and the ``contested nature of social citizenship.'' -- Rachel Langford, Ryerson University * Pacific Historical Review *
This book will interest students and scholars of Canadian women's and gender history, welfare history, and those interested in the contemporary politics of child care and working motherhood. Practitioners and policy analysts working in the child care, child welfare policy, and early childhood education fields will also find this book illuminating.
