Publisher Description: With the feminist challenge to family therapy, power is being recognized as a central organizing principle in families. Here theorists and clinicans address the many thorny questions around women and power, highlighting the different cultural messages for women and men concerning not only access to power but also the desirability of having power, pursuit of power and ways of exercising power. The way in which women are (typically) disadvantaged with regard to power are explored. |
