In this introduction to family studies, Jon Bernardes argues that variation and diversity are increasingly the hallmarks of family structure particularly in Europe and the United States. The book provides a comprehensive account of how families work both internally and in relation to society through the labour market and also through social institutions like education and the law.The chapters are designed to work as individual units of study in courses on family living. Each chapter:
* highlights key issues
* summarises the most relevant research in the area
* suggests activities as a basis for student projects and discussion
* recommends further reading
Above all, this very positive approach to a changing social form encourages students to find out for themselves what family life, in all its richness and complexity, looks like as we enter the twenty first century.
