Description - Family Stress Management by Pauline E. Boss
In this Second Edition of Family Stress Management, the author continues to explore both the larger context surrounding families and stress and the inner context, which includes perceptions and meanings. Pauline Boss emphasizes the need for a more general contextual model of family stress and crises than other models. The goal is to provide a framework for students and professionals engaged in helping families learn how to manage their stress. Features of the book include: * a contextual approach which encourages students and professionals to see how micro and macro views of family stress can be combined in an ecological (or contextual) design * the concluding chapter provides students and researchers with speculation about the future of family stress research - where it may be heading and why it is needed - thus providing a roadmap for future research and application * chapters conclude with 'points to remember' and cartoons help reinforce points with humour As much as 60% of the text is new material and coverage brings the book thoroughly up-to-date.
