Description

Price and McKenry's book synthesizes the current state of knowledge on divorce, summarizing recent scientific findings and describing the sociological and psychological processes involved in this major life transition. The importance of the roles of societal turmoil, economic conditions and the presence of children in divorce cannot be overemphasized and the authors reflect this. They also examine the process of divorce, adjustment to it and the exchange theory of divorce.
