"Mothers Matter Too: A Book for New Zealand Women at Home" by Jenny Phillips, first published in 1983, is a seminal work that addresses the psychological challenges faced by mothers dedicated to homemaking. At a time when open discussions about the realities of motherhood were scarce, Phillips provided a platform for women to voice their experiences and feelings.

The book combines personal anecdotes, interviews with homemakers, and in-depth research to explore the causes of distress and depression among mothers. It offers practical suggestions for both social and individual change, aiming to align the expectations of motherhood with its realities. Praised for its informal yet intelligent writing style, "Mothers Matter Too" became a bestseller, featured in medical school reading lists, and was widely distributed by the New Zealand Mental Health Foundation. Decades after its publication, the book remains relevant, offering insights that continue to resonate with mothers today.
