Discover 'Past Caring?', a compelling paperback that delves into the critical role of care in New Zealand's social fabric. This insightful volume of 286 pages, expertly edited by Barbara Brookes, Jane McCabe, and Angela Wanhalla, explores the often-overlooked topic of care, which is essential to both individual well-being and social relationships. Care permeates the core of New Zealand's key social institutions, including family and state welfare systems, yet it frequently goes unrecognized and unrewarded. Through a series of thought-provoking essays, this book addresses profound questions about gender, justice, and morality, highlighting how care shapes our lives on both philosophical and practical levels.Understand care's significance through personal narratives, such as that of a M?ori grandmother, or the dedication of a Rarotongan leader. The volume weaves in memories from North East India and critiques from New Zealand cinema, which challenge the prevailing notion of ‘man alone’ by showcasing the everyday experiences of sole-carer mothers. Dive deep into case studies that unveil the multifaceted nature of care in various contexts—domestic, institutional, and political. With a publication date of February 1, 2019, 'Past Caring?' is a must-read for anyone interested in gender studies, social justice, and the critical importance of care in our interconnected lives.

Are women past caring? Care is essential to social relationships and individual well-being. It is woven into New Zealand’s key social institutions, such as the family, and is also embedded in societal expectations around state provision of health and welfare. Care is so vital, in fact, that it is often taken for granted and goes unnoticed and unrewarded. Historical and philosophical enquiry have largely ignored the issue of care, yet it raises profound questions about gender, justice and morality. The essays in this volume raise those questions directly – at the level of abstraction where prominent New Zealand women philosophers grappled with the political implications, and on the ground at the level of family relationships. Understanding the history of care requires attention to personal narratives, such as a M?ori grandmother’s story, a Rarotongan leader’s concept of duty to her people, or the sense of service that drove a long-term social worker. Memories of childhood night-time care are carried across the ocean from North East India. The depiction of sole-carer mothers in New Zealand film suggests a â€caring’ alternative to the celebrated concept of â€man alone’. The case studies examined focus on the everyday nature of care operating across domestic, institutional and political spaces, and build upon areas of strength in women’s history with its interest in family, motherhood, health, welfare, educa

Great polos at a great price
Color: Blue/White, Size: Large
Pleasantly surprised at the quality of these shirts. A bit heavier of a fabric then I anticipated but will be perfect for spring and fall. The size (large) was in fact large. :)

Good for the price point
Color: Olive 09, Size: Medium
I bought this as a Christmas gift for one of my teen boys.
I originally bought this shirt for our 16 year old but when I received it, I quickly realized the quality would be off putting to him, so I gifted it to one of my other boys that is not a material/brand snob. The color is spot on with the description.
Our son loves the shirt’s thin knit and softness when wearing. The quality could be better but it’s good for the price point.
Fits as described and is holding up to our fifteen year old nicely.
Would buy again.

Perfect Fit, Perfect Material
Color: Lt Blue 09, Size: Large
Large was a perfect fit for me. Chest, shoulders and waste perfect. Arms surprisingly long as I have long arms (35”). I had to pull up the left sleeve to get out of my grip. Material was very soft, light and stretchy. Perfect to keep arms out of the sun and still cool enough on a 94 degree here in Florida. For those w a belly, this might not work. I have a flat stomach some love handles and somewhat squarish body type (not a V..I’m 71) so perfect belly space for me. I’m 6’, 185. The other issue for me is my shoulder arthritis and getting a sweaty shirt off, no problem. The shirt wicked away the water and the shirt was stretchy enough to get it off easily. I am going to wash it and make sure it holds it shape then if positive I will buy a couple more. I’ve tried several shirts, this is great!
