About this book
Reviews
“This book is very clearly written and that the results are set forth in a straightforward manner. It’s a quick read. The book raises and describes the many concerns as well as many satisfactions that young adults have with siblings, parents, and romantic partners. The themes regarding changing relationships that are highlighted here may well provide jumping-off points for other researchers interested in the relationship experiences of young adults.” (Margaret S. Clark, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 60 (28), July, 2015)
