Abstract
What happens to a marriage when the wife is a professional and the husband is a manual worker? Cross-Class Families takes a keen look at families that break with the convention of male occupational superiority. Key issues addressed by the families studied include paid work and its relation to family life; the division of household labor, including childcare; responsibility for long-term financial security; and the impact of differences in status, class position, political preference, choice of friends, and attitudes toward trade unions.
