Adopting a feminist sociological approach throughout, this popular textbook explores family dynamics through a critical life course theoretical lens.

Approachable, concise, and filled with discussion questions, activities, and resources for further reading, Family Matters is the perfect resource for students enrolled in introductory or advanced level courses in family sociology and gender studies. FEATURES: Up-to-date material featuring current events, recent research studies and statistics, including census and other national data setsnew and expanded content on a wide range of timely topics, such as Indigenous and racialized family life, transgender children, technology and social media, and the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic Includes updated instructor supplement package equipped with PowerPoint slides, video resource suggestions, and a test bank
