In these and other books, she continues the sociological tradition of C. Wright Mills by drawing links between private troubles and public issues.[5] In drawing this link, she has tried to illuminate the ways we recognize, attend to, appraise, evoke, and suppress—that is to say, manage—emotion. She has applied this focus to the family, to work, and to political life.[6] Her works have been translated into 17 languages.[7] She is also the author of a children's book titled Coleen The Question Girl, illustrated by Gail Ashby.[8]
