Most of the caring work in our society is done by women. This work is often hidden in the roles of mothers, daughters, and wives and is undervalued outside the home as women work in the community as volunteers, in the 'caring' professions, and in low-wage jobs in hospitals, child-care centres, and homemaking services. In this second edition of Women's Caring , a ground-breaking feminist perspective on social welfare in Canada, the editors and their contributors have added three new chapters-on women of colour, women abused in intimate relationships, and Canada's live-in caregiver policy.
