What is Choices and Constraints in Family Life about?
"Designed specifically for sociology of the family courses, Choices and Constraints in Family Life examines how relationships and family practices have changed over the past decades in Western industrialized countries. Using an interdisciplinary approach that draws on the latest research in sociology, psychology, anthropology, and social history, author Maureen Baker explores emerging patterns in family life, including rising rates of cohabitation among both heterosexual and same-sex couples; declining birth rates, with more births occurring outside marriage; and higher rates of separation, re-partnering, and stepfamilies. While exploring the effect of personal choice on these patterns, she also points to the constrains - old and new that bear on family life in Canada."--Jacket
