Opis

Sharing Lives looks at important human relationships between adults, adult children and their parents. The book offers a concise evaluation of in depth research, combining theoretical reasoning with empirical research based on the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE). There is no book yet that covers current relationships between adult children and parents comprehensively and in depth. Sharing Lives offers reliable findings on the basis of state-of-the-art methods and best available data, and presents these findings in an accessible manner. This book will appeal to policy makers, researchers and graduate students in the area.
