Motherdom

Alex Bollen is a researcher with over twenty years of experience, including as a former director of the research agency Ipsos MORI. She is a Postnatal Practitioner with the NCT, the UK's largest parenting charity, and has been running postnatal groups for new mothers in South West London for over a decade. She is the mother of two children.

As Alex Bollen reminds us in her irascible, informative volume Motherdom, what it takes to be considered a good mother changes throughout history, so as to remain always just out of reach.
