China's patrilineal and patriarchal tradition has encouraged a long-standing preference for male heirs within families. Coupled with China's birth-planning policy, this has led to a severe gender imbalance. But a counterpattern is emerging in rural China where a noticeable proportion of young couples have willingly accepted having a single daughter. They are doing so even as birth-planning policies are being relaxed and having a second child, and the opportunity of having a son, is a new possibility.
Choosing Daughters explores this critical, yet largely overlooked, reproductive pattern emerging in China's demographic landscape. Lihong Shi delves into the social, economic, and cultural forces behind the complex decision-making process of these couples to unravel their life goals and childrearing aspirations, the changing family dynamics and gender relations, and the intimate parent-daughter ties that have engendered this drastic transformation of reproductive choice. She reveals a leading-edge social force that fosters China's recent fertility decline, namely pursuit of a modern family and successful childrearing achieved through having a small family. Through this discussion, Shi refutes the conventional understanding of a universal preference for sons and discrimination against daughters in China and counters claims of continuing resistance against China's population control program.

Описание: Women are encouraged to believe that they can occupy top jobs in society by the example of other women thriving in their careers. This book shows that having a mother as a role model does not predict daughters progressing in their own careers. It offers a timely and original perspective on the debate about gender equality in leadership positions.
The death of a loved one drops us to our knees. We feel as though the world has ended--and yet, death is a natural part of the human condition. All of us will suffer loss. In Beautiful Grief, Tony Rose and his daughter, Katie, extract the lessons they learned from the death of Jonny, Tony's 28-year-old son and Katie's brother.
Grief stretches your emotional bandwidth. Though there is no "beating" grief, no getting over it, the extent to which you can feel joy, happiness, love, and compassion is directly proportional to the amount of pain, grief, sadness, and devastation you have felt.
The death of a loved one will change your life. You will find yourself standing on the threshold between your previous way and what will become your new way. Remember, though, that "different" and "less" are not synonyms. Your new life will be different, for sure, but it need not be less.
When you allow the future to unfold, you can find, create, and allow moments of happiness to stack on top of other moments of happiness, so that moments become days, and days become weeks, and the weeks become a life of beauty.
As you read this book, you will realize that you can unshackle yourself from grief.
Indeed, in the coming weeks, you will begin to understand that grief is your companion. You will realize that your pain carries lessons, asking you to grow to be wise, resilient, and, yes, even happy.
