Life without father: Compelling New Evidence That Fatherhood and Marriage Are Indispensable for the Good of Children and Society
The American family is changing. Divorce, single parents, and stepfamilies are redefining the ways we live together and raise our children. Many "experts" feel these seemingly inevitable changes should be celebrated; they claim that the "new" families, which often lack a strong father, are actually healthier than traditional two-parent families - or, at the very least, do children no harm. But as renowned family sociologist David Popenoe shows in…

Gender and Family Change in Industrialized Countries
This volume focuses on the relationship between change in the family and change in the roles of women and men on contemporary industrial societies.

This is a social and cultural analysis of community life in metropolitan areas of three nations -- the United States, Sweden, and England.

Despite their many similarities, the three societies offer remarkably contrasting urban forms, and thus provide a unique opportunity for comparative research. The findings suggest goals for urban community development in Americ…
