Living with Children was the first book published by Research Press. For Research Press publisher and founder Bob Parkinson and first-time author Gerald Patterson, the publication marked the beginning of careers dedicated to helping children learn and grow in an ever-changing world.

Review

The book is a careful, straightforward presentation of behavior modification techniques. . . useful as a resource in helping parents develop effective management techniques for dealing with behavioral problems. --Robert I. Havens, Personnel and Guidance Journal

The material is well arranged, theoretical concepts being explained and then followed by precise and specific directions for their practical application. --David R. Mace, The Family Coordinator

A useful supplementary tool, particularly for elementary and junior high counselors in their work with parents. --Richard W. Warner, Jr., The School Counselor
