In publisher’s original white cloth spine, titled in red, and white boards. In publisher’s original dust jacket.

In this book, Al Gore and Tipper Gore, the 45th Vice President and Second Lady of the United States, explore the many ways in which the idea of family is being redefined in America. In this moving exploration of the contemporary family landscape, the Gores share stories drawn from their own experiences and those of a dozen other families they have come to know over the years. Recent cultural shifts and economic pressures have profoundly affected every family in the nation. The struggle to balance work and family life, in combination with new technological advancements, has changed the ways the family structure operates and communicates. But change has also opened up exciting possibilities, yielding an explosion of new family forms and novel solutions to age-old problems. "One of our purposes in this book has been to describe the transformation of the American family over the last few decades. For the first time in history, the definition of family relies less on structure and more on subjective experience." Combining personal insight and expert opinions, as well as historical and global perspectives, Joined at the Heart identifies an emerging new family reality, and demonstrates that the human need for family is stronger than ever.
