Review
"It's time to shine an intense spotlight on child care. The question of who provides it and how it’s valued remains an unresolved political conflict. The national conversation is, in fact, stuck--and in need of “the way out” promised by Bergmann and Helburn’s book. What they’ve given us is a rational, well-defined, and workable approach that should inspire a new and better public debate and provide hope for millions of American families." —Faith A. Wohl, president, Child Care Action Campaign
"No problem ripples through American society more than our lack of safe child care. Government policies have fallen flat, leaving fathers and mothers feeling torn between their roles as members of the work force and protectors of the future generation. Bergmann and Helburn show us that solutions exist, in this guide to sound family values, in the truest sense." —Ambassador Swanee Hunt, director, Women and Public Policy Program, Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University
"...an engaging work accessible to generalist readers but also of value to readers interested in policy analysis..." -Choice
