Book synopsis

The "Marriage & Family Experience: Intimate Relationships In A Changing Society, International Edition" brings together all elements of the course-including intimate relationships, family policy, and family issues. Striking just the right balance between an academic and more functional approach, the Twelfth Edition features an inviting new design that makes the text more engaging and student-friendly than ever. The authors draw from research in sociology, family studies, and related fields, presenting a sound sociological and family studies base enhanced by perspectives from anthropology, history, psychology, journalism, literature, economics, and gender studies. The book presents a positive, multicultural approach to today's relationships as it explores recent research on topics such as adoptive parenting, childbearing patterns, gay and lesbian families, the meaning of virginity, communication and conflict resolution, the influence of popular culture, the rights and benefits of marriage, and working families. Real-life examples, a balanced presentation, and a focus on self-assessment and reflection make the book especially accessible and encourage students to think and act for themselves. The Twelfth Edition's progressive approach to diversity remains rooted in a positive, pro-family perspective.
