The Reproduction Of Mothering: Psychoanalysis And The Sociology Of Gender

The Story

When this best-seller was published, it put the mother-daughter relationship and female psychology on the map. 'The Reproduction of Mothering' was chosen by 'Contemporary Sociology' as one of the ten most influential books of the past twenty-five years. With a new preface by the author, this updated edition is testament to the formative effect that Nancy Chodorow's work continues to exert on psychoanalysis, social science, and the humanities.
