Reviews

Like Family deepens our understanding of how the institution both reflects and reproduces the savage inequalities on which our society continues to be based. -Jacklyn Cock, author of Maids and Madams: A Study in the Politics of Exploitation


My hope is that Like Family leads to a national dialogue and a reassessment of domestic work. This is an important book for both maids and madams.-Sindiwe Magona, author of To My Children's Children Like Family deepens our understanding of how the institution both reflects and reproduces the savage inequalities on which our society continues to be based.-Jacklyn Cock, author of Maids and Madams: A Study in the Politics of Exploitation
