Not since William Goode's "Women in Divorce" in the 1950's have we
had such a comprehensive study of adjustment to divorce. This
longitudinal work views divorce as a transition process which may
have positive or negative outcomes over time. In addition to
statistical analysis, the book includes very interesting case
studies to demonstrate the dynamic events occurring as individuals
refashion their lives after the breakup of their marriages.
Researchers on divorce and the interested public will find this
book very valuable for years to come."

We are witnessing a steady increase in the overall number of
older adults who are divorced, yet the majority of divorce research
has concerned itself with persons in the younger adult years. This
unique, groundbreaking book addresses the critical need for
information on the impact of divorce on individuals in all age
groups, and pays special attention to age as a factor in the
effects of divorce on both men and women.
Written by an interdisciplinary team of social and behavioral
scientists, "Divorce: Crisis, Challenge or Relief?" provides the
invaluable results gained from their life span study of divorced
adults. Divorce is the product of hundreds of interviews containing
a host of very specific questions conducted with divorced adults
between the ages of 20 and 79, both just after their divorce and
again several years later.
