Chapters illustrate physical and social influences on parenting, childhood, adolescence, fertility, and family formation, providing analytical frameworks for understanding key areas such as family behavior, health, development, and adaptation to contextual stressors.Highlights of the coverage:?Motherhood and fatherhood as seen through psychobiological and functional perspectives?The importance of the phenotype in studies of gene/environment interactions?Adolescence: genes, hormones, and family behavior?Psychological adaptation and human mating strategies?Family resources, genes, and human development?Social inequities, family relationships, and child healthA book that explains the present while charting the future study of its subject, Biosocial Foundations of Family Processes is provocative reading for researchers in family relations, family sociology, psychology, and public health, and may hold particular interest for policymakers.
