DOWNLOAD EBOOKOrigins We call this book on theoretical orientations and methodological strategies in family studies a sourcebook because it details the social and personal roots (i.e., sources) from which these orientations and strategies flow. Thus, an appropriate way to preface this book is to talk first of its roots, its beginnings. In the mid 1980s there emerged in some quarters the sense that it was time for family studies to take stock of itself. A goal was thus set to write a book that, like Janus, would face both backward and forward a book that would give readers both a perspec tive on the past and a map for the future. There were precedents for such a project: The Handbook of Marriage and the Family edited by Harold Christensen and published in 1964; the two Contemporary Theories about theFamily volumes edited by Wesley Burr, Reuben Hill, F. Ivan Nye, and Ira Reiss, published in 1979; and the Handbook of Marriage and the Family edited by Marvin Sussman and Suzanne Steinmetz, then in production.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAbstract: Principles of effective family resource managementare presented to help adults solve the problems of individual and family living. These principles are viewed asa sociological system consisting of "inputs" (e.g., family values and goals, family crises, income, assets, credit, andcommunity support programs); "throughputs" which act upon the inputs to achieve designated results (e.g. planning and implementing); and "outputs" consisting of an environment modified by the throughputs. A theoretical system model is developed and each of its components is discussed in detail.The model is then applied to specific family life situations (e.g. families with handicapped members, single parent families, and low income families), and to the family"life cycle"--from young families to elderly people. A glossary of terms provides definitions. (nzm).
