This is a book that goes beyond a mere examination of the role of the family in structuring sexual relationships, kinship relations, and child rearing practices. Here are historical examples of the family as a source of labor and capital accumulation, as a mechanism for the transmission of property, and as a means for the imposition of social control.

Review
"The pieces offer a fascinating combination of historical evidence and sociological analysis, of a standard rarely reached in family studies. Yet the historical context of each piece is quite distinct."—Keith Hopkins
"The essays in this volume rank with the best social history offered today."—History of Childhood Quarterly
