The Encyclopedia of the Life Course and Human Development examines
three key life stages from a sociological perspective, exploring
how enduring experiences, as well as transitions and events such as
childcare, education, stress, marriage, career, addiction,
friendship, parenthood, disease, spirituality, and retirement
influence the individual's life course. The nearly 400 entries in
this three-volume set are organized by life stage: Childhood and
Adolescence; Adulthood; and Later Life. Included in each is an
overview essay that features a detailed discussion of that stage of
human development, followed by signed entries that apply
sociological as well as economic, biological, psychological, and
educational perspectives to a range of topics. Also covered are
sociological theories and their significance to life course study;
the impact of social and government policies; and racial, gender,
and geographic patterns of many life course phenomena. Entries are
heavily illustrated with photos, graphs, charts, and tables. Also
included is coverage of research methods and key data sources,
which enhance and reinforce the topical entries, as well as a
glossary, thematic outline, annotated bibliography, and cumulative
index.
