Book Description
Karen and Rob Burrows have always handled just about everything well—but what about divorce? Karen and Rob were always great partners, and together they built a life filled with success, good friends, and a beautiful son, Tommy. But as they each get caught up in the stresses of their careers, they realize they lack one thing—real, enduring love for each other. Can two parents who respect each other manage a pain-free separation? Mr. and Mrs. Burrows will try, even if it means asking their confused son to manage as perfectly as they do. With the insight and compassion of his classic Kramer vs. Kramer, in A Perfect Divorce Avery Corman reveals the raw hurt of a broken family, the effort of building newly separate lives, and the collateral damage even the most amiable divorce can inflict.

Book Description
“A rich backdrop of period detail . . . This emotionally rich and socially aware novel touchingly evokes a time when the personal became awkwardly political.” —Publishers Weekly Cyrus Stapleton thinks he’s done everything right—married young, fathered two precocious kids, and partnered in his Seattle law firm—but his wife, Jude, yearns for more. Envisioning Cyrus as all the czars and dictators of the nineteenth century rolled into a three-piece suit and herself as the liberated visionary, Jude sheds her ring, then her married name, and finally her bewildered husband. Gripped by helplessness and self-doubt, Cyrus wonders how it came to this. Is it the fault of Jude’s women’s group and its fiery leader, Lill Epstein, the ex-army feminist with silicone breasts? Does Jude have a new lover? How does a reasonable man behave in the face of his wife’s demands for custody, alimony, and child support? How can he salvage his relationship with his kids when he sees them only twice a month? And what is he to do when, contrary to his best judgment, he becomes attracted to none other than Lill Epstein? Searching for a way back to normal—through a men’s therapy group, the misguided assistance of his younger brother, and his kids (who begin to act out in troubling ways)—Cyrus must navigate through twists and turns, and a courtroom battle, to survive the upheavals of 1970s America with his heart intact.

Book Description
ÔThis book treats seriously one of the fundamental trends characterizing contemporary institutions Ð namely, the inability to establish a ground from which purpose and direction can be defined. It questions the core trope of Òpermanent changeÓ and exposes its emptiness in a thorough and considered manner which enriches the way we question organizational orders.Õ Ð Bogdan Costea, Lancaster University, UK What does it mean to organize when the only established premise is that everything is transient? How is it possible for an organization to manage expectations based on the expectation of the unexpected? In this thought-provoking book Niels ukerstr¿m Andersen uses a unique combination of deconstruction, systems theory and discourse theory to critically discuss topics such as the management of feelings, partnerships as second order promises, and workÐlife balance as an immune defense against over-socialized employees. He assesses the parallels between layoffs in intimate organizations and modern professional divorce discourses, and explores the dichotomy of double-bounded management commanding both Ôdo as I sayÕ and Ôbe autonomousÕ. In so doing, Professor Andersen encourages the reader to look at relationships in the workplace in new ways. This unique book will prove invaluable for academics and students of human resource management, organizational behavior and critical management studies.

Book Description
The enactment of the Divorce Reform Act 1969 was a landmark moment in family law. Coming into force in 1971, it had a significant impact on legal practice and was followed by a dramatic increase in divorce rates, reflecting changes in social attitudes. This new interdisciplinary collection explores the background to the 1969 Act and its influence on law and society. Bringing together scholars from law, sociology, history, demography, and film and literature, it reflects on the changes to divorce law and practice over the past 50 years, and the changing impact of divorce on different people in society, particularly women. As such, it offers a 'biography' of this important piece of legislation, moving from its conception and birth, through its reception and development, to its imminent demise. Looking to the future, and to the new law introduced by the Divorce, Dissolution and Separation Act 2020, this collection suggests ways for evaluating what makes a 'good' divorce law. This brilliant collection gives insight not only into this crucial piece of legislation, but also into a key period of societal change.
