Home Economics

The term "home economics" may conjure traumatic memories of lopsided hand-sewn pillows or sunken muffins. But common conception obscures the story of the revolutionary science of better living. The field exploded opportunities for women in the 20th century by reducing domestic work and providing jobs as professors, engineers, chemists, and businesspeople. And it has something to teach us today. Danielle Dreilinger traces the field's history from Black colleges to Eleanor Roosevelt to Okinawa, from a Betty Crocker brigade to DIY techies.

Writer Rodney Walker paints an engaging portrait of disillusioned high school teens struggling both academically and existentially. In a final attempt to help the students graduate, a radical new biblically based course in home economics is offered, introducing life-changing lessons about family, faith, relationships, and purpose. It's a triumph over tragedy story as a subplot introducing the perils of human trafficking thickens.
