Description

"'Home economists are trained in skills that are basic in making home life healthier, easier and more satisfying. Modern technology has made this life an obtainable goal for millions of the world's families in our generation. But people are needed to help these families apply our knowledge to everyday problems.'

"This statement from a Peace Corps Volunteer home economist says a little about the reasons behind the demand for more Volunteers to serve as teachers of the methods of modern living and communicators of the way to better living among women of the world's developing nations." -- [unnumbered first interior page]
