It attests to the continued vigor of family cum gender history, and would benefit students and scholars working on family, gender, and the social history of Britain, the continent, or elsewhere.' Ilana Krausman Ben-Amos, H-Net Reviews
Review of the hardback: 'The volume is well-supported by a thematic bibliography, which illustrates the range of approaches to this topic in recent decades. The essays gathered here are, themselves, testimony to this range and to the enduring energy of this area of study.' Vierteljahrschrift für Sozial- und Wirtschaftsgescichte
