Summary

This groundbreaking book puts forward strong arguments that run against the main currents in the prevailing theology of marriage. McCarthy challenges those accounts that treat the interpersonal aspects of marriage apart from economics and political questions, and proposes that marriage and family flourish when part of an interdependent network of households in community.
