About this title

Synopsis

Carefully selected and edited by Constance L. Shehan, The Family Issues Reader is a new anthology of recent articles from one of the leading family science publications, the Journal of Family Issues (SAGE).  The 47 articles in this collection follow the scope and sequence of family sociology and family relations courses, and provide a wide range of perspectives on families and intimate relationships. Focusing on families in the United States, the readings reflect a diversity of family experiences along dimensions of race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, rural-urban residence, gender, age, and sexual identity/orientation.
