Grandparenting: Contemporary Perspectives is one of the first books
of its kind to offer a dedicated account of the social and
psychological research on this important life stage. Reflecting the
contemporary positive approach to ageing, it covers many of the
issues that impact the grandparent experience today, such as
care-giving and changing family structures, to reveal the health
and wellbeing benefits of the grandparent role. It examines
biological, psychological, social/ familial, gender, cultural and
economic dimensions to map out the current landscape in this
emerging field. Moore and Rosenthal draw on quantitative and
qualitative, experimental, survey, observation and case study
research, including unique data on grandfathers. They examine how
people respond to the challenges and possibilities of
grandparenting, and how this influences intergenerational
relationships and adapting to growing older. The book provides a
comprehensive, up-to-date evidence base for students in health,
sociology and psychology and those interested in gerontology and
the lifespan.
