Understanding the Life Course provides a uniquely comprehensive
guide to the entire life course from an interdisciplinary perspective.
Combining important insights from sociology and psychology, the book
presents the concept?s theoretical underpinnings in an accessible style,
supported by real-life examples.
From birth and becoming a
parent, to death and grieving for the loss of others, Lorraine Green
explores all stages of the life course through key research studies and
theories, in conjunction with issues of social inequality and critical
examination of lay viewpoints. She highlights the many ways the life
course can be interpreted, including themes of linearity and
multidirectionality, continuity and discontinuity, and the interplay
between nature and nurture. The second edition updates key data and
includes additional material on topics such as new technologies,
changing markers of transitions to adulthood, active ageing, resilience
and neuropsychology.
