Family in Transition

  • The authors, who are leading scholars, build each new edition from classic literature in the field as well as the continuing stream of new family scholarship.
  • Contributions from leading researchers in a variety of disciplines provide new insights into family and explode many myths about family life.
  • Many selections support the authors' claim of a “triple revolution” transforming contemporary family life: the move to a postindustrial service and information economy; a life course revolution brought about by reduced mortality and fertility; and psychological changes rooted in rising educational levels.
  • The authors present a general introduction to the collection, as well as to each of the four major parts.
