In Essential Dads, sociologist Jennifer Randles shares the stories of more than 60 marginalized men as they sought to become more engaged parents through a government-supported ¢responsible¢ fatherhood program. Dads¢ experiences serve as a unique window into long-standing controversies about the importance of fathering, its connection to inequality, and the state¢s role in shaping men¢s parenting. With a compassionate and hopeful voice, Randles proposes a more equitable political agenda for fatherhood, one that carefully considers the social and economic factors shaping men¢s abilities to be involved in their children¢s lives and the ideologies that rationalize the necessity of that involvement.
