Written by the author of "The Experience of Childbirth" and "Women's Experience of Sex", this is a view of childbirth and child-rearing from all parts of the world; from India to Jamaica and from South Africa to Communist China and to the comparatively luxurious, yet clinical, experiences of British mothers. It discusses the problems facing mothers in the West today, the pain of infertility, the struggles of working mothers, the myth of the "new man" and the under-rating of housework, and ways in which women try to juggle with their identities as mothers and as achievers in a man's world.
