The term 'home economics' may conjure traumatic memories of lopsided hand-sewn pillows or sunken cakes. But obscured by common conception is the story of the revolutionary science of better living. The field exploded opportunities for women in the twentieth century by reducing domestic work and providing jobs as professors, engineers, chemists, and businesspeople that were otherwise foreclosed. In The Secret History of Home Economics, Danielle Dreilinger traces the field's history from small farms to the White House, from Victorian suffragists to Palo Alto techies. Home economics followed the currents of American culture even as it shaped them; Dreilinger brings forward the racism within the movement along with the strides taken by Black women who were influential leaders and innovators. She also looks at the personal lives of home economics' women, as they chose being single, shared lives with women, or tried for egalitarian marriages. This groundbreaking and engaging history restores a maligned subject to its rightful importance"--Provided by publisher</td></tr> <tr> <td valign="top" width="20%" class="bibInfoLabel">Subject(s)</td> <td class="bibInfoData"> <a href="/search?/dHome+economists+--+United+States+--+Biography/dhome+economists+united+states+biography/-3,-1,0,B/browse">Home economists -- United States -- Biography</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> <a href="/search?/dHousekeepers+--+United+States+--+Biography/dhousekeepers+united+states+biography/-3,-1,0,B/browse">Housekeepers -- United States -- Biography</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> <a href="/search?/dWomen+scientists+--+United+States+--+Biography/dwomen+scientists+united+states+biography/-3,-1,0,B/browse">Women scientists -- United States -- Biography</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> <a href="/search?/dHome+economics+--+United+States+--+History/dhome+economics+united+states+history/-3,-1,0,B/browse">Home economics -- United States -- History</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> HOUSE & HOME / General.</td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> Home economics</td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> Home economists</td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> Housekeepers</td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> Women scientists</td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> United States</td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> Home economics.</td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> Home economists -- Biography.</td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> Housekeepers -- Biography.</td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> Women scientists -- Biography.</td></tr> <tr> <td valign="top" width="20%" class="bibInfoLabel">Genre/Form</td> <td class="bibInfoData"> <a href="/search?/dBiographies+fast+%28OCoLC%29fst01919896/dbiographies+fast+ocolc+fst01919896/-3,-1,0,B/browse">Biographies</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> <a href="/search?/dHistory+fast+%28OCoLC%29fst01411628/dhistory+fast+ocolc+fst01411628/-3,-1,0,B/browse">History</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> <a href="/search?/dBiographies.+lcgft/dbiographies+lcgft/-3,-1,0,B/browse">Biographies.</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> <a href="/search?/dBiographies.+rvmgf+%28CaQQLa%29RVMGF-000000519/dbiographies+rvmgf+caqqla+rvmgf+000000519/-3,-1,0,B/browse">Biographies.</a> </td></tr> <tr> <td valign="top" width="20%" class="bibInfoLabel">Other title(s)</td> <td class="bibInfoData"> How trailblazing women harnessed the power of home and changed the way we live</td></tr> <tr> <td valign="top" width="20%" class="bibInfoLabel">ISBN(s)</td> <td class="bibInfoData"> 9781324004493</td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> 1324004495</td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> 9781324021865</td></tr> <tr> <td></td> <td class="bibInfoData"> 1324021861</td></tr> <tr> <td valign="top" width="20%" class="bibInfoLabel">Miscell. code</td> <td class="bibInfoData"> 40030508433</td></tr> <tr> <td valign="top" width="20%" class="bibInfoLabel">OCLC / EBC #</td> <td class="bibInfoData"> 1196174367</td></tr> <tr> <td valign="top" width="20%" class="bibInfoLabel">LCCN</td> <td class="bibInfoData"> 2020054841</td></tr> </table>  </td></tr> </table>   </div>  </div>   <table width="100%" cellspacing="1" class="bibDetail"> <tr class="bibInfoEntry" ><td>  <table width="100%" cellspacing="3" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td valign="top" width="20%" class="bibInfoLabel">Persistent Link</td> <td class="bibInfoData"> https://library.anselm.edu/record=b2853255</td></tr>   <script type="text/javascript"> try{ var tr = document.getElementsByTagName('TR'); var otherlib_title = ""; for(i = 0; i < tr.length; i++) { var oclcTD=tr[i].getElementsByTagName('TD'); if (oclcTD.length == 2 && oclcTD[0].innerHTML == "OCLC #") { otherlib_title = oclcTD[1].innerHTML.replace(/(<([^>]+)>)/ig,""); //get oclc otherlib_title = otherlib_title.replace(/ /g,""); //take out spaces if any otherlib_title = otherlib_title.replace(/[\n\t]/ig,""); //take out newline } } if (otherlib_title.length > 0) { document.getElementById("citeoclc").innerHTML = "<a href='http://worldcat.org/wcpa/oclc/" + otherlib_title + "?page=citation' target='_blank'>SECOND Cite this item (in MLA, APA, and other styles)</a>"; document.getElementById("citeoclc").innerHTML = "<a href='http://worldcat.org/wcpa/oclc/" + otherlib_title + "?page=endnote&client=worldcat.org-detailed_record' target='_blank'>Save for EndNote import</a>"} else {//document.getElementById("citeoclc").style.display = "none"; document.getElementById("citeoclc").innerHTML = "No citation available.
