This interdisciplinary volume presents international research and theories focusing on the development of the individual across the life span. Centering on "family" as the key context influencing, and being influenced by the developing person, the contributors to this volume discuss an array of theoretical models, methodological strategies, and substantive foci linking the study of individual development, the family system, and the broader context of human development. The volume presents continuing empirical research and theories in the realm of individual and family development and features a developmental, contextual view from a process-oriented vantage point.

"The life span tapestry remains largely unwoven. However, a good start has been made, and this volume fairly accurately reflects the state of the field. The book, or chapters therein, might reasonably be added to recommended reading lists for graduate students, and most developmentalists should find something to whet their interest here."—Contemporary Psychology"...innovative and intrepid in grappling with important issues. Taken as a whole, the volume is a cause for optimism about the future."—Journal of Marriage and the Family
