Growing Together: Personal Relationships Across the Life Span (Advances in Personal Relationships) Book

From the moment people are born until the moment they die, their lives are intertwined with other people. Survival itself is determined by personal relationships. People who have strong ties live longer and in better health than people who are lonely or isolated. Yet, scholarship has rarely considered personal relationships across the entire life span. This edited volume integrates research on people's relationships from childhood to later adulthood. Chapters look at specific types of relationships (e.g. parents, friends, spouses) as well as the functions that underlie these relationships (e.g. the way people think about relationships, their emotional reactions to relationships, and their motivation for relationships).Read More
