Description

A Constant Burden: The Reconstitution of Family Life is a seminal text in the field of medical sociology. Originally published in 1975, this work has established itself as a classic study regarding the impact of disability on the family unit. This revised edition brings new life to the original research, making it an essential resource for students and professionals in anthropology and sociology. The book presents a detailed analysis based on interviews with parents. It explores how a child's disability affects the dynamics of family life. While much contemporary research at the time of its writing assumed that having a child with a disability was strictly a problem, this study offers a different perspective by examining the actual responses and experiences of the parents involved. This text remains a foundational piece for anyone studying the social sciences and the complexities of family structures.
