Description
This book offers insight into women's different experiences when giving birth and taking maternity leave in the United States. By offering an intersectionalities perspective grounded in the history and socially constructed understandings of race, class, and gender, this book describes, explains, and can help to predict particular women's likelihood of taking maternity leave and can contribute to the consequence of leave-taking for women's health and employment in the short- and long-term.
