Mothers, Mothering and Motherhood across Cultural Differences, the
first-ever Reader on the subject matter, examines the meaning and
practice of mothering/motherhood from a multitude of maternal
perspectives. The Reader includes 22 chapters on the following
maternal identities: Aboriginal, Adoptive, At-Home, Birth, Black,
Disabled, East-Asian, Feminist, Immigrant/Refuge, Latina/Chicana,
Poor/Low Income, Migrant, Non-Residential, Older, Queer, Rural,
Single, South-Asian, Stepmothers, Working, Young Mothers, and
Mothers of Adult Children. Each chapter provides background and
context, examines the challenges and possibilities of
mothering/motherhood for each group of mothers and considers
directions for future research. The first anthology to provide a
comprehensive examination of mothers/mothering/ motherhood across
diverse cultural locations and subject positions, the book is
essential reading for maternal scholars and activists and serves as
an ideal course text for a wide range of courses in Motherhood
Studies.
