A World of Their Own Making: Myth, Ritual and the Quest for Family Values
John R. Gillis
Family values are central to our society, but as John Gillis points out in this book, most of our images of home-sweet-home are of a very recent vintage. He questions idealized notions of "the family" and the political construction of family rituals and argues these images must be open to change.
