'Brian Ogolsky has assembled an outstanding cohort of relationship scholars who bring much-needed attention to elements of the sociocultural ecosystems in which personal relationships are embedded and that constantly push and pull at the fabric of these relationships. Readers will find masterful and state-of-the-art reviews of the literature on personal relationships and social forces such as religion, neighborhood, racism, employment, and social class in this must-have volume.' Chris Segrin, Professor of Communication, University of Arizona
