Description: "Changing Britain provides a comprehensive portrait of British families and households at the end of the 20th Century. The book examines more generally the nature of economic and labour market change, Britain's place in Europe, and changing attitudes towards family life. Specifically, the book also deals with issues such as: older people's lives; non-heterosexual families; one-person households; young mothers and single parents; and divorce."--Jacket.
