| Summary: | Family Communication carefully examines state-of-the-art research and theories of family communication and family relationships. In addition to presenting contemporary cutting-edge research, it also includes extensive presentation and application of classic theories and findings in family science that have informed current day understandings of essential family processes. This text represents a current and comprehensive presentation of information generated by principled research conducted throughout the world for both students and teachers of family communication, as well as for professionals who work with families and seek an evidence-based understanding of functional and dysfunctional family processes. New to the third edition is an expanded coverage of understudied family relationships and diverse family forms. Each chapter is carefully updated to include important new research findings generated over the past seven years (e.g., communication in families coping with military deployment, adoption, and same sex or transgender parents). |
