Expanded Family Life Cycle: Individual, Family, Social Perspectives, The (Pearson New International Edition) 4/E ePDF

This classic Family Therapy text continues to provide a new and more comprehensive way to think about human development and the life cycle, reflecting changes in society away from orientation toward the nuclear family, towards a more diverse and inclusive definition of 'family'. This expanded view of the family includes the impact of issues at multiple levels of the human system: the individual, family households, the extended family, the community, the cultural group and the larger society. The text features a ground-breaking integration of individual male and female development in systemic context; our increasing racial, ethnic, and cultural diversity; the emergence of men's movements and issues; the growing visibility of gay and lesbian families; and the neglected area of social class.
