"There is something for everyone in this book, and it leaves one
with the feeling that it will prove to be a seminal work on
grandparenthood, one that will guide future grandparenting research
for the next several decades. The research reviewed and integrated
is exhaustive; the bibliography alone is a worthy investment for
the interested scholar. The level of writing is accessible to both
veteran researchers and graduate students, and most chapters are
equally accessible to the lay audience."-Contemporary

"This book it would seem, now stands as the definitive reference
text on grandparent research. Each chapter holds to a standard of

critical issues and needs for future research direction. The book

study."-Journal of Marriage and the Family

this volume is to "guide grandparent research into the mainstream
of research on families and the elderly" and the book appears well
