Furthermore, childlessness has a number of consequences for both women and men, the communities in which they live, their psychic states, their social networks and the organisations in which they work. Bringing together research from a wide range of scholarly disciplines, including philosophy, psychology, sociology, gender studies, social work and social policy, and underpinned by a feminist ontology this edited collection of original chapters provides an insight into the current state of the art research on the drivers, determinants, manifestations and outcomes of childlessness. The collection is intended to be a key resource for scholars, students and policymakers addressing this issue in a wide range of disciplinary contexts.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmItem Weight: 729gContributor: Natalie Sappleton (Edited by)Author: Natalie SappletonGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Social SciencesBook Series: Emerald Studies in Reproduction, Culture and SocietyRelease Year: 2018 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
