| book description |

A NEW SCIENTIST BEST POPULAR SCIENCE BOOK OF 2025 Why do women who outearn their male partners still tend to do more housework and childcare? Why are unemployed men generally happier if their female partners are also unemployed? And why is unpaid labour still seen as a less important contribution than paid work within family units? In Breadwinners, award-winning science journalist Melissa Hogenboom interviews female breadwinners, stay-at-home dads and same-sex couples, comparing their stories to the latest research to demonstrate the consequences of these changing dynamics. Breadwinners reveals the influence of power structures all around us and gives readers the tools to address imbalances and improve our relationships at home and at work.
