About this title: Susan Chira champions the cause of mothers who choose to work outside the home. She assigns much blame to child-rearing experts, civil servants, and other segments of society that perpetuate what she sees as harmful myths and dated stereotypes about working mothers. Citing research to support her side, Chira advocates strong support networks and suggests a few seemingly small, sensible changes that would go a long way to supporting mothers who choose to work outside the home. A "New York Times" Notable Book for 1998.
