One of the authors sent me a copy of this book of short essays for review. I have to say that this was an excellent collection of thoughts on the changing roles of men and women as primary caregivers. I find it hard to believe that in the 21st century the men who are "stay-at-home" dads still get the same kind of stigmatic behavior from people that they might have thirty years ago. I'm glad that many fathers, as reflected in the essays in this book, have found ways to cope and continue with their nurturing roles.The essays in this book are all well-written, have a little tinge of humor, and are very heartfelt. This is not something I would normally read, not being a father (since most people look at me funny when I talk about my four-legged children), but it was an enjoyable and enlightening read.
