| Summary |
"This volume follows the same 60 families described in the authors' first book, Becoming a Family, and now, six years later, relates their stories about their transition from childhood to adolescence. Collectively, the two books provide a unique longitudinal perspective on family development using two distinct data collection formats and time frames. Interdisciplinary in nature, the book draws on theory and practice from the fields of social work, psychology, and sociology."--BOOK JACKET |
