"...a strength of the volume is that all of the authors provide excellent literature reviews and background information to give sufficient understanding to those readers who may not be well versed on the particular subject area of the chapter....the editors have developed a well-written volume that presents both conceptual and research chapters on some major concerns of the life cycle. The text is rich in content, offers options that some may find controversial, and advances psychological theory and practice."
