From the reviews:
"The book makes a fine contribution to the literature on rural families. It provides a rich discussion of the lives of rural families as they relate to work. . The book is well written and organized. It is likely to become a standard read for many courses on rural families, work and public policy. The language of the book is not too academic, which also makes it ideal for policy makers and organizations serving rural communities." (Monique Constance-Huggins, Journal of Family and Economic Issues, Vol. 34, 2013)More details

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
