In this new collection of thirteen essays, Arlie Russell HochschildÑauthor of the groundbreaking exploration of emotional labor, The Managed Heart and The Outsourced SelfÑfocuses squarely on the impact of social forces on the emotional side of intimate life. From the ÒworkÓ it takes to keep personal life personal, put feeling into work, and empathize with others; to the cultural ÒblurÓ between market and home; the effect of a social class gap on family wellbeing; and the movement of care workers around the globe, Hochschild raises deep questions about the modern age. In an eponymous essay, she even points towards a possible future in which a person asking ÒHowÕs the family?Ó hears the proud answer, ÒCouldnÕt be better.Ó

"Coleman and Ganong recruited an outstanding group of scholars to contribute to the Handbook of Contemporary Families. Authors represent a wide array of disciplines, and the topics touch on every aspect of family life. The organization of the book is excellent and the writing of high quality. Scholars and students alike will find the book a valuable resource." --Alan Booth, Penn State University "Marilyn Coleman and Larry Ganong have produced a comprehensive handbook exploring the changes and challenges confronting contemporary families. The chapters, written by some of the most distinguished social scientists studying families, give a balanced research-based analysis of some of the most contentious issues of our time." --E. Mavis Hetherington, University of Virginia "This useful handbook brings together many of the most important new findings and provocative ideas about America′s diverse and changing families. An excellent resource." --Stephanie Coontz, author of The Way We Really Are: Coming to Terms with America′s Changing Families What has happened to marriage and families? What is the current state of families? Where are families headed? Where is family scholarship headed? As families face challenges today brought on by events that have changed their perception of the world, there is a need for a clear assessment of what has happened to families in the past and an examination of some data-based theories about what is likely to happen in the future. The Handbook of Contemporary Families explores how families have changed in the last 30 years and speculates about future trends. Editors Marilyn Coleman and Lawrence H. Ganong, along with a multidisciplinary group of contributors, critique the approaches used to study relationships and families while suggesting modern approaches for the new millennium. The Handbook looks at how changes within the contemporary family have been reflected in family law, family education, and family therapy. Features of this Handbook: Examines a diverse array of families and relationships in which people live, including chapters on alternative lifestyles, gay and lesbian relationships, economically distressed families, religion and families, racial and ethnic diversity, a feminist vision for families, older families, and the effect of computers and other technology on family relationships Includes both a historical review and future speculation on the subjects covered in each chapter Interdisciplinary contributors representing a variety of fields such as history, family studies, sociology, law, therapy, social work, psychology, nursing, and human development The Handbook of Contemporary Families is an excellent resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, researchers, educators, and practitioners who study and work with families in several disciplines, including Family Science, Human Development and Family Studies, Sociology, Marriage & Family Therapy, and Social Work.

How does a family function? How does a family make a distinctive life of its own while living according to the values of society? In what ways is a family a unit when all its members have personalities of their own? How can we understand diversity among families?Robert D. Hess and Gerald Handel sensitively explore the dynamics of family life in five narrative case studies. The Clarks, Lansons, Littletons, Newbolds, and Steeles are all "typical" families with representative social, cultural, and psychological problems. By simultaneously studying each family as a small group and as a set of individual personalities, the authors have captured the interplay between personality and family as each group works out its own special way of coping with its problems. Further, they have formulated several principles of family functioning that help focus comparison.Family Worlds was the first, and is still one of the few studies, to interview each member of the family, giving equal weight to children as well as to adults, so each family member's perspective is factored into Hess and Handel's family portraits. A new introduction to the Transaction edition illuminates just how significant this ground-breaking study still is today and highlights the new implications it has for today's families as well as emerging approaches.

Originally published in 1969, this introduction to the social study of the family was designed both for students of sociology and for students of related subjects requiring familiarity with a similar approach. It is therefore written in language as simple as possible; technical terms are only introduced when indispensable and are always defined. While the book is focused on European and American family systems, the author believed these are intelligible only when placed in a wider context, and so the first part is concerned with kinship, marriage and the family in general. He does not attempt to provide a descriptive account of all the empirical studies available but concentrates on what he considers the chief theoretical problems. In consequence this book is argumentative and critical in approach, and never strays far from the central issues of sociological theory; it is, therefore, of value to both students of sociology and to others interested in the perspective which the discipline can give to the study of the family.

This book is the first sociological study of the large family as a way of life, as a system of child rearing, and as a matrix for personality development. It is an original study based on case histories of one hundred large families (ranging in size from six to sixteen children), members of which have contributed the facts of their family experiences. A total of 879 children were born in these families, and it is chiefly through the eyes of the children that these families are viewed. Six years of investigation and analysis were devoted to this study by James H. S. Bossard and his research associates, and the results of their work suggest answers to many questions that have perplexed students of human behavior. For example: What are the attitudes of children toward large families? Of the fathers? Of the mothers? Are large families as happy as smaller families? What are the characteristic features of the happy ones? How and by whom are children reared in large families? How do children in these families get along with each other? Do large families make for feelings of security—emotional and/or economic? Do children reared in large families make good husbands and wives? Do they form large families in turn? Are they well-adjusted persons? What are the special hazards of the large family, and how do large families tend to meet their problems? These are only a few of the questions concerning large families that are studied in this volume. Including fifty-eight tables and a wealth of case-history material, The Large Family System is a pioneering work of urgent interest to students of the family and child development, to social case workers, to parents in general, to research workers in human behavior, to everyone who has been reared in a large family or who aspires to start a large family of his own.
