Childless By Choice
''Helen Taylor''s memoir offers the perspective that''s often missing'' New Statesman Helen Taylor cuts through the taboo of voluntary childlessness in this timely, intimate and groundbreaking exploration of what it means to live a life without children. Part memoir, part cultural history, this compelling narrative weaves personal experience with rigorous analysis to challenge our assumptions about family, fulfilment and female identity. Drawing on a lifetime of experience as a feminist academic who chose not to have children, Taylor examines the joys and complexities of her path less travelled. She traces how attitudes toward childlessness have evolved - and sometimes haven''t. With unflinching honesty, she confronts the challenges of aging without children while celebrating the freedom and opportunities her choice has provided. Through interviews with other women, analysis of cultural attitudes and examination of literature and media, Taylor builds a rich tapestry of what it means to live outside traditional family structures. She explores thorny questions about legacy, purpose and belonging in a world that often defines women through motherhood. Taylor''s warm, intelligent voice guides us through territory that has too long been shadowed by judgement and misconception, offering wisdom, solidarity and a new framework for understanding the many ways to live a meaningful life.

Social Justice in Contemporary Housing

release date: Jan 01, 2018
Social Justice in Contemporary Housing
Philosophy is not usually seen as a guidance for modern housing policy, but in this new book, Dr Helen Taylor argues that there is something innovative, unusual, and worth discussing about the application of philosophy to housing. The philosophical framework used within this book is John Rawls'' conception of justice as fairness. The UK has gone through several shifts in housing policy over the past decade, most recently by introducing the controversial ''Bedroom Tax'', in an effort to make more cuts to benefits and social welfare. Social Justice in Contemporary Housing: Applying Rawls'' Difference Principle suggests that by using ideas of agency we can understand the impact that social policy has on individuals and wider society. The work outlines the liberal principle of legitimacy and argues that Rawls'' concept of reasonableness can, and should, be used to justify the intervention of policy in individuals'' lives. This book will be of interest to undergraduate and postgraduate students of housing as well as philosophy and social policy, and alsothose working around the creation and implementation of social housing in the UK.
