The Time Bind: When Work Becomes Home and Home Becomes Work - Softcover
A study of America's work/family time-dilemma examines why many working parents decline the offer to take family-friendly leaves from work, instead choosing to flee homes invaded by the pressures of work and using the workplace as kind of surrogate home. Reprint.
