I'll Do It Myself
What happens when life throws you a curveball and you end up in a coma? You fight damn hard to rebuild your life, that's what. Sandra Hubert was 31 years of age and heavily pregnant with her third child when she contracted viral encephalitis and was placed into a coma. Her son was delivered by caesarean. When she finally woke from the coma, she was told devastating news - she had suffered serious brain injury. I'll Do It Myself tells Sandra's remarkable story of healing with humour and unflinching honesty, and reveals the power of determination. After her injury, Sandra drew on her strength and the love of her family to retrain her brain and rebuild her life. She slowly put together the broken pieces and created something new, beautiful and strong from something that had once seemed impossible to repair. If you've experienced a life-altering challenge (even if it's not a brain injury), you, too, can figure out a way to heal from and grow through that challenge. Sandra's story will inspire you to do it!
The Impact of Religiosity on Fertility
The work investigates the impact of religiosity of women and men on their completed fertility in an international comparison considering a long time period. Sandra Hubert aims at uncovering all mechanisms through which religiosity and religious institutions can affect fertility. Hence, both the micro- and the macro-level of each country are explicitly integrated, and theoretically as well as empirically dealt with. The selection of differing countries rests upon the expectation that religiosity influences fertility decisions independently of the institutional context, social norms, state church-relations, and the national degree of religious vitality. These factors are intensively compared with each other at the country level. At the micro-level the impact of religiosity on fertility is tested by means of regressions and based on the Generations and Gender Survey. Results depend on gender, country, the diverse religious affiliations, and more.

Single parenthood in the life course
This book analyses theoretically and empirically why some single mothers are less disadvantaged than others. It argues that single parenthood is associated with different risks, depending on the stage in the life course at which it is experienced and on the institutional protection provided at the respective stage of the life course.

Alleinerziehen im Lebensverlauf
Dieses Buch analysiert theoretisch und empirisch, warum einige alleinerziehende Mütter weniger benachteiligt sind als andere. Es wird argumentiert, dass Alleinerziehen mit unterschiedlichen Risiken verbunden ist, je nachdem an welchem Abschnitt im Lebensverlauf es erlebt wird, und welche institutionelle Absicherung die jeweilige Phase des Lebensverlaufs erfährt. Empirisch werden am Beispiel Deutschlands mit Daten des Sozio-oekonomischen Panels Unterschiede in ökonomischen und sozialen Lebensbedingungen zwischen Alleinerziehenden untersucht.
