Understanding personal relationships throughout the life course is one of the most crucial issues in the behavioral and social sciences. This book brings together perspectives from different disciplines on individual development and personal relationships across the life span. The book addresses two pertinent dimensions of personal relationships: 1) structures of relationship networks (e.g. kin vs. non-kin, peripheral vs. intimate, short-term vs. long-term) and 2) processes (i.e. change or stability) and outcomes of personal relationships across the life span.
