Excerpt from Family, Society, and the Individual It is a singular pleasure to present a book of such excellence as The Family, Society, and the Individual. It is reliable and authoritative, as a first-rate work of science must be. This will come as no surprise to students of the family who are familiar with Dr. Kephart's own important scientific contributions. It is admirably clear. Few textbooks combine such a readable style with meaningful content. The student who uses this book will not bog down in it. It is comprehensive. Here will be found all the topics which are ordinarily considered in courses on the sociology of the family. The book will serve the institutional courses very well indeed. But included are enough practical topics so that the book can also be used in many so-called functional courses. This book will appeal to those teachers of functional courses who want an effective theoretical frame of reference and who are willing to sacrifice attention to some practical problems like housing and budgeting in order to get it. The book is unified by a central thesis, namely, that problems of the family often represent a clash between the needs of the individual and the requirements of the social order, and that it is only when these two forces are in balance that maximum social integration can be effected. Whatever contributes to the conservation of the family, therefore, also contributes to the well-being of both individual and society. This thesis is not just enunciated in an early chapter and then ignored. It pervades the entire book and integrates it.

Excerpt from Family, Society, and the Individual Fundamentally, of course, the family is everywhere recognized as the institution responsible for biological survival. In addition to its procreative role, the family is also the agency chiefly responsible for the child-rearing and child socialization processes. In civilized societies especially, the child-training function has come to have tremendous significance. Gone are the days when children should be seen but not heard; on the contrary, the importance of childhood and the effects of home life on personality and character formation have been widely recognized. In fact, as the basic' primary group the family probably has more to do with the child's ultimate behavioral pattern than does any other single environmental factor, and it is on this assumption that the broken home has come to be blamed for so many Of our delinquency problems. The family, through the husband - wife relationship, is also the recognized institution for the fulfillment of sexual needs. The sex urge is a powerful one, and most societies have set up rather elaborate safe guards to insure that sexuality is kept within bounds. In a very real sense, the family is man's answer to the sex problem. This is readily apparent in our own society where nearly all forms of sex expression other than marital coitus are considered morally wrong, punishable by both legal and religious actions. The family is also one of the chief agencies of sociability. This was not always so, and indeed in some societies it is not the case today. Yet over the years, wherever women have been accorded relatively equal social status, the husband-wife relationship has taken on added meaning in terms of sustained companionship, sociability, and other manifestations of primary-group activity. Again, this is especially applicable in our own society, where affection, companionship, shared activities, and general sociability are often the hallmarks of marital happiness.

American families are diverse because they derive from many historical and cultural influences. Only by studying these influences can we understand family strengths and weaknesses and forecast its future possibilities. The Family, Society, and the Individual encompasses the entirety of family systems unified by a central theory: Problems of the family often represent a clash between the needs of the individual and the requirements of the social order. It is only when these two forces are in balance that the individual, family and the society benefit the most. This theory is not just enunciated in an early chapter and then ignored. It pervades and integrates the entire book. This book also provides a universal definition of the family. A basic premise of any science, including family science, requires an abstract, universally applicable definition of the core unit of analysis. The definition of the family provided in this book incorporates the fact that every family is a social network. The first edition of The Family, Society, and the Individual was published by William M. Kephart in 1961. The theoretical theme of this book remains through the eighth edition. The teachers and students alike should find this combination of classical theory and modern methodology a liberating framework within which to tell the story of the family comprehensively, inclusively, unbiasely, and clearly.

Any agenda for family research in the 1990s must take seriously a contextual approach to the study of family relationships. The editors and contributors to this volume believe that the richness in family studies over the next decade will come from considering the diversity of family forms -- different ethnic groups and cultures, different stages of family life, as well as different historical cohorts. Their goal is to make more explicit how we think about families in order to study them and understand them. To illustrate the need for diversity in family studies, examples are presented from new and old families, majority and minority families, American and Japanese families, and intact and divorcing families. This variety is intended to push the limits of current thinking, not only for researchers but also for all who are struggling to live with and work with families in a time when family life is valued but fragmented and relatively unsupported by society's institutions. Students and researchers interested in family development from the viewpoint of any of the social sciences will find this book of value.
