One of the pioneering works of modern sociology, Family and Kinship in East London is a study of family life in the East End of London in the 1950s, based on extensive interviews and case studies, which examines the consequences of moving families from urban to suburban public housing. The book was first published in 1954, updated in 1989, and is here presented with a new foreword by Judith Stacey.

Editorial Reviews
Review
"Astonishing as it may seem, this is probably not only the fullest, but virtually the only account of working class family relationships in any country. The general reader will find it full of meat and free of jargon." -- Charles Madge, New Statesman
From the Inside Flap
"A wonderfully vivid, accurately observed portrait of a way of life, whose value as a historical document increases as the East End of small factories, docks and busy streets of row houses disappears, and with it the culture of the old Bethnal Green."--Dolores Hayden, author of The Grand Domestic Revolution
