More Work for Mother: The Ironies of Household Technology from the Open Hearth to the Microwave by Ruth Schwartz Cowan
3.0
An interesting read about a side of the industrial revolution that you don’t normally think of. Interesting enough that it kept me reading and coming back for more but some chapters were extremely boring and could’ve been skipped or shortened.
Learning the history of household technology was interesting but I am disappointed with the conclusion of the book which was to me, vague and unsatisfactory. I would, however, like to read other books that would continue with the subject.
