註釋The purpose of [this book] is to bring the reader the latest thoughts and trends in our understanding of the family, to identity current concerns as well as problems and potential solutions, and to present alternative views of the family process. The intent of this anthology is to explore intimate relationships as they are played out within the family and, in doing this, to reflect the family's evolving function and importance ... This anthology is organized to address many of the important aspects of family and family relationships. The first unit takes an overview perspective and looks at varied perspectives on the family. The second unit examines the beginning steps of relationship building as individuals go through the process of exploring and establishing connections. In the third unit, the means of finding and maintaining a relationship balance - for romantic as well as for other intimate relationships - are examined. Unit 4 is concerned with crises and ways in which these can act as challenges and opportunities for families and their members. Finally, unit 5 takes an affirming tone as it looks at family strengths and ways of empowering families.-Pref.
