Synopsis
In this classic work of women's history (winner of the 1984 Dexter Prize from the Society for the History of Technology), Ruth Schwartz Cowan shows how and why modern women devote as much time to housework as did their colonial sisters. In lively and provocative prose, Cowan explains how the modern conveniences,washing machines, white flour, vacuums, commercial cotton,seemed at first to offer working-class women middle-class standards of comfort. Over time, however, it became clear that these gadgets and gizmos mainly replaced work previously conducted by men, children, and servants. Instead of living lives of leisure, middle-class women found themselves struggling to keep up with ever higher standards of cleanliness., In this classic work of women's history (winner of the 1984 Dexter Prize from the Society for the History of Technology), Ruth Schwartz Cowan shows how and why modern women devote as much time to housework as did their colonial sisters.

- r***r (2383)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoShipped quickly in a padded envelope and pretty much as described, although the disc seems a bit more scratched up than expected. My mom had a vinyl Julio Iglesias album that featured a variety of songs in different languages, but unfortunately she hasn’t had any luck finding it on cd. She is French so I am hoping this cd featuring songs in French will make her happy.Julio Iglesias : Sentimental CD 1980 CBS rare Out of Print (N° 156411985665)
