When "The Future of Marriage" was published a decade ago it was immediately acclaimed as a classic contribution to the literature of marriage and of sex roles. In it, the eminent sociologist Jessie Bernard argued that in every marriage there are actually two marriages-his and hers-and that sociological data reveals that marriage is more beneficial for men than for women. In a new edition of this pioneering work, Bernard provides a fresh introduction and update showing what has changed and what has remained the same since her book was first published
