—Child Development Abstracts and Bibliography
A rarity in edited books, I found no weak chapters. All were clearly written and well organized, and then provided excellent descriptions of that author's particular program of research....A strength of the book is the diversity of methodologies....Overall, this is an impressive, well-integrated book.
—Journal of Marriage and Family
...an important contribution to the existing library of books on divorce and remarriage because it seeks to identify and elucidate the key risk and protective factors explaining variability in individual adjustment following family transitions....provides a healthy mix of conceptual overviews and empirical findings that would be accessible to most readers. This...feature is a unique characteristic of books in this field.
