The study of parent-child relationships has long been of interest
to behavioral scientists, both for its theoretical importance and
for its practice and policy implications. There are, however,
certain limitations to the knowledge in this area. First, research
on parents and children is spread throughout a number of
disciplines and as a consequence is not well integrated. Further,
there has been little dialogue among researchers concerned with
parents of young children and those interested in middle-aged and
elderly parents and their offspring. The present volume predicates
the notion that there is considerable similarity in the issues
explored by researchers on different points of the life course.
Contributions by leading scholars in psychology, sociology, and
anthropology are organized into four sections, each of which
contains a treatment of at least two stages in the life course. The
sections cover attachment in early childhood and in later life,
life course transitions, relationships within families, and the
influence of social structural factors on parent-child relations.
Although the chapters make important contributions to basic
research and theory, many also deal with issues of public concern,
such as day care, maternal employment, gay and lesbian
relationships, and care of the elderly.
