Rezensionen
'First time fathers' expectations of what fathering might mean for them are translated into practices in the context of gendered normative constraints. Throughout this book gender theory and practice are skilfully interwoven resulting in new insights into how change in gender roles might happen.' Ulla Bjornberg, Gothenburg University
