Regarding Barry’s post below, readers may find of interest the new book, Gender and Parenthood: Biological and Social Scientific Perspectives, co-edited by W. Bradford Wilcox and Kathleen Kovner Kline and published this month by Columbia University Press, and our report forthcoming later this spring which summarizes major findings from the papers published in this volume, which will be titled “Mother Bodies, Father Bodies: How Parenthood Changes Us From the Inside Out.”

Looks interesting, but from a non-academic’s perspective, it costs an arm and a leg. I’m going to have to look into some kind of interlibrary loan.
Kindle version is $20.
When I buy a book, I want it to last. It’s a shame that a hardcover copy of this book (and other recent ones) is so prohibitively expensive.
Academic books can be 80 or 90 dollars. I was pleased they priced this one at 35. Which is still a lot of money, I know.
