More than a Labour of Love – Women’s Press Classics

Three Generations of Women's Work in the Home

By Meg Luxton

Description

Originally published in 1980, this new edition of More Than a Labour of Love is the first of our Women’s Press Classics series, which celebrates our most enduring titles.

Based on participant observation and in-depth interviews, this book describes the work women do in their homes, caring for children and partners, and maintaining the house. It shows how their lives are shaped by domestic responsibilities and challenges the ways in which their work is neither recognized nor valued. Arguing that the work they do is socially necessary and central to the economy, it calls for a transformation of current social and economic relations.
