Very Good English Paperback. Pbo. Roy. 8vo. (23 x 16 cm). In English. [xviii], 328 p. Women and divorce in Canada: A sociological analysis provides an in-depth review of divorce and traces its causes and consequences for women, children and men. The book begins with an historic review of Judeo-Christian thought and practice regarding divorce with special focus on how men and women have been perceived and how these perceptions, rooted in religious philosophy, have expanded to determine their legal rights and obligations to one another. In addition to the wealth of theoretical and historical issues discussed in the book, the author provides a lengthy review of consequences of divorce including the shifts in socioeconomic conditions of divorces. Special attention is drawn to the resilience of children to cope with events and the potential strength they may gather from involvement with their parents in mastering this taxing life experience. The author's discussion of the feeling of empowerment which divorce sometimes engenders is especially compelling. Women and divorce in Canada provides valuable and in-depth understanding of divorce which has become an integral part of Canadian family life in the last twenty-five years.
