- Summary:
- Love them or hate them, we can't live without them. The family shapes us from birth to death. But what makes a family? And why does it keep changing? The American Family, the critically acclaimed reference series from ABCCLIO, explores the many diverse faces of our most familiar -- and most misunderstood -- institution.
- In The American Family, a series of six multi-volume encyclopedias, top scholars in history, psychology, sociology, and medicine analyze the past, present and future of our most important institution. With the benchmarks of professional scholarship presented in a style that makes information accessible to general students and readers, The American Family offers a comprehensive portrait of the family as a psychological, social, political, economic, and cultural force in shaping our world.
