Routledge Work, Family, Health, and Well-Being

Product Description This volume grows out of the 1st conference sponsored by the NICHD. This is an interdisciplinary project, and there are potential markets in I/O psychology, sociology, family studies, demographics, economics, anthropology, and social work.

In the book's final chapter, the editors provide a brief summary and a call for further, and explicitly interdisciplinary, research. This book is a valuable contribution..."―Industrial and Labor Relations Review
