Exploring Family Theories by Suzanne R Smith
Offering a diverse variety of perspectives, Exploring Family Theories, Fifth Edition, is a combined text/reader that integrates theory with research and applications. In each chapter, Suzanne R. Smith and Raeann R. Hamon concisely present the history, scholarship, and critiques of one principal family theory. Numerous examples and illustrations augment and clarify content, while application questions encourage students to relate these theories to the real world. After each chapter, a follow-up journal article exemplifies how that particular theory is used to guide actual research.
I truly find this book perfectThe three primary strengths are organization, clarity, and coverage. * Joanna Cemore Brigden, lMissouri State University *
The coverage has been just right for my students. The examples are plentiful and very helpful. The writing is reader friendly and accessible. I especially appreciate the application questions and sample readings at the end of each chapter. * Rhett Billen, lCalifornia State University, Fresno *
The authors do a good job of presenting the main theories in the research and relative to practice. I like the application exercises. The examples are relatable and easily digested by undergraduates. This book is a comprehensive review of quintessential theories in the family science discipline. * Diane Hall, lTowson University *
