| Résumé: | "Soul Mates shines a much-needed spotlight on the lives of strong and happy minority couples. Wilcox and Wolfinger find that both married and unmarried minority couples who attend church together are significantly more likely to enjoy happy relationships than black and Latino couples who do not regularly attend. They argue that churches serving these communities promote a code of decency encompassing hard work, temperance, and personal responsibility that benefits black and Latino families."--Publisher's description Steering clear of the street -- Religion, sex, and childbearing -- Wandering towards the altar -- A path to wedded bliss? |
