Written by nationally recognized anthropologists Conrad Kottak and
Lara Descartes, this ethnography of largely white, middle class
families in a town in the midwest explores the role that the media
play in influencing how those families cope with everyday
work/family issues. The book insightfully reports that families
struggle with, and make work/family decisions based largely on the
images and ideas they receive from media sources, though they
strongly deny being so influenced. An ideal book for teaching
undergraduate family, media, and methods courses.
