Description - Work, Family and Religion in Contemporary Society by Nancy Tatom Ammerman

Work,Family and Religion in Contemporary Society discusses how churches and synagogues today are beginning to adapt to the reality of the modern family: dual-career marriages, high levels of divorce,interfaith marriages, partnerships that may not be marriages. The book documents changing trends in the connection between religion, work, and the family.As families change, as more women enter the paid workforce,and as more people advocate individualism and feminist principles,a barrier grows between families and organized religion.Other essays show how changing families and flexible congregations are experimenting with new forms of religious life.
