Book Description
Marriage: Best Friends; Battles; Phases of Love; Biology; and Parenting; get all this right and youll have the perfect marriage; right? Come on! Dont be an idiot! No-one can give you the perfect recipe for getting a marriage just right. We are all different; with different upbringing, attitudes, wants, desires, needs, and baggage. Although making a marriage work isnt rocket science it does require a good amount of common sense, and a great amount of selflessness. It means at times giving more love than you get, and being ok with that. It means being devoted to that special woman as long as you both shall live. It also means using your head for something more than a hat rack and making good, sensible decisions. Be the strong loving husband and father your wife desires and deserves. Marriage is an ever-evolving dance. No man and no secular book will have all the answers youre looking for; but this collection of life experiences and relationship research is one great place to start!

Ain't No Makin' It
Author: Jay MacLeod
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429975082
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 509
Book Description
This classic text addresses one of the most important issues in modern social theory and policy: how social inequality is reproduced from one generation to the next. With the original 1987 publication of Ain't No Makin' It, Jay MacLeod brought us to the Clarendon Heights housing project where we met the 'Brothers' and the 'Hallway Hangers'. Their story of poverty, race, and defeatism moved readers and challenged ethnic stereotypes. MacLeod's return eight years later, and the resulting 1995 revision, revealed little improvement in the lives of these men as they struggled in the labor market and crime-ridden underground economy. The third edition of this classic ethnography of social reproduction brings the story of inequality and social mobility into today's dialogue. Now fully updated with thirteen new interviews from the original Hallway Hangers and Brothers, as well as new theoretical analysis and comparison to the original conclusions, Ain't No Makin' It remains an admired and invaluable text.
