Ann Van den Troost's Books

The author examined the underlying processes and correlates of spousal satisfaction with marriage. The study is directed towards the generation that instigated diverse quantitative and qualitative changes in the private sphere. Using longitudinal data of a representative sample of married husbands and wives, the book tackles several issues that are relevant to contemporary marital life.

The story of the Garden of Eden is one of the most familiar in the Bible. But if we read it without preconceptions, we discover a narrative as its original audience would have heard it, as its author intended. Robbins explores why the man was created first, and the woman for and from him. She elucidates the reason for the particular punishments, and why the storyteller gave a woman the starring role. She does all this by highlighting the importance of wordplay in the Garden of Eden story. This book introduces not only a wordsmith but, above all, a supreme storyteller who is bound to become a personal favorite.

This field-defining book offers an interpretation of the recent figurations of neo-Victorianism published over the last ten years. Using a range of critical and cultural viewpoints, it highlights the problematic nature of this 'new' genre and its relationship to re-interpretative critical perspectives on the nineteenth century.

This new adaptation of the best-selling American text is contemporary, covering such current topics as non-traditional families; Comprehensive, with all material being deemed essential by reviewers, and Balanced, with excellent historical and theoretical coverage of Canadian families. Using the theme of choice, the text helps students learn with weblinks at end of each chapter, 'As We Make Choices' boxes, and 'A Closer Look At Diversity' sections.
