This volume, first published in 1975 with a new introduction by Ziona Strelitz, marked a pioneering contribution to family and leisure studies. The study includes empirical material collected in the form of biographical case studies. The case studies are not only rich in detail and well presented, but they provide a meaning of leisure within the pattern of life of the individuals studied. This book will be of great interest to students of leisure and family studies.

In this book, first published in 1971, the authors show from first-hand studies of family and working life (and with evidence from many countries, including the socialist societies of Eastern Europe) the nature of the discrimination facing women in the professions – and how various family and employment patterns might contribute to solving it. Their point is not that some new stereotype should be substituted for traditional views of the role of husbands and wives: different patterns fit different situations.
Abstract: This book examines ten projects that represent new approaches to the mental health problems of children and youth. Each of the projects is described and analyzed as a case study - revealing how the new intervention took form, what contribution was expected from a collaborative relationship with a behavioral scientist, and what the actual experiences were in attempting to apply and disseminate knowledge arising from such a relationship. The collaborative-interactive relationship between the author and the project directors was termed "action-research".
