The days of husbands being the breadwinner and wives staying home are over as married women continue to join the workforce. What is this doing to the American marriage? Sociologist Soledad Espinoza explores the sociological, economic, psychological, and political facets of modern marriage and how it is changing gender relations in "Modern Marriage Realities: Women's Work, Money, and Love in America." Her work takes a look at why families are moving away from the traditional breadwinner model, making gender roles in the workplace and family more equal. While there are other books on the sociology of marriage, family, gender, and work," Modern Marriage Realities" addresses matters of race and appeals to a larger segment of the population. It presents an alternative to outdated studies that don't take into account how much work, family, and gender identity have changed. Espinoza analyzes the present state of modern marriage during one of the most radical periods of social change in American history. Useful for sociologists, college students, and economists alike, "Modern Marriage Realities" also serves as a guide for couples facing the challenge of entering a dual-earner marriage.
