| book description |

Dynamics of the family can be seen as a complex set of interrelated cogs, like the dials and wheels within a sophisticated timepiece.Â Families in Motion:Â Dynamics in Diverse ContextsÂ is a clear, comprehensive, and contextual view of how the dials and wheels of that complex set work together. With a focus on multicultural competence through diverse contexts and examples, this new text explores the complexities of the family regarding roles, functions, and development in a way that is approachable for students.Â Grounded in theory and using 40 years of academic experience, authorÂ Clara GerhardtÂ guides readers through concepts of family theories and examines the ever-changing movement, communication, and conditions of both the family as a system and each member within the system. Covering approaches from the theoretical to the therapeutic,Â Families in MotionÂ will support students in extending their cultural competenceÂ while understanding families and their members with greater confidence.Â
