Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 The supermom advertisement image is the same woman, but she is presented in different ways in different advertisements. She has that working-mother look as she strides forward, briefcase in one hand, smiling child in the other. #2 The rise in mothers working outside the home has led to a rise in fathers doing housework and child care. Men and women still feel strongly about how they should contribute to the family, and how appreciated they are for their work. #3 The image of the woman with the flying hair seems like an upbeat cover for a grim reality, like those pictures of Soviet tractor drivers smiling radiantly into the distance as they think about the ten-year plan. #4 I interviewed fifty couples very intensively, and I observed in a dozen homes. I focused on heterosexual, married couples with children under age six, their child-care workers, and others in their world from the top to the bottom of the social ladder.
