'This comprehensive handbook on parenting, grounded in contemporary research and carefully curated and co-edited by two of the field's well-known scholars, will be a terrific asset to scholars and students alike. The book's contributors discuss the basics foundations of good parenting, how parenting changes and varies across stages of the child's development, characteristics of both parents and their children that affect how parenting is expressed, and the policy and practical implications of contemporary parenting science. I recommend it highly.' Laurence Steinberg, Distinguished University Professor, Temple University, USA
