Understanding the Life Course provides a uniquely comprehensive
guide to the entire life course from an interdisciplinary
perspective. Combining important insights from sociology and
psychology, the book presents the concept's theoretical
underpinnings in an accessible style, supported by real-life
examples. From birth and becoming a parent, to death and grieving
for the loss of others, Lorraine Green explores all stages of the
life course through key research studies and theories, in
conjunction with issues of social inequality and critical
examination of lay viewpoints. She highlights the many ways the
life course can be interpreted, including themes of linearity and
multidirectionality, continuity and discontinuity, and the
interplay between nature and nurture. The second edition updates
key data and includes additional material on topics such as new
technologies, changing markers of transitions to adulthood, active
ageing, resilience and neuropsychology. This comprehensive approach
will continue to be essential reading for students on vocational
programmes such as social work and nursing, and will provide
thought-provoking insight into the wider contexts of the life
course for students of psychology and sociology.
