From the rear cover
In this first collection of its kind, philosophers, poets, novelists, psychologists, and child development experts speak out on the role of the family in society, on life passages such as marriage and the birth of children, and on family connections: husbands and wives, brothers and sisters, children and grandparents. A wealth of authoritative voices provide needed perspective - and invaluable counsel - on coping with issues such as violence in the media, stepparenting, divorce, and balancing the demands of jobs and personal lives. Family Wisdom spans centuries and cultures, offering 2,000 perceptive, insightful, and helpful quotations and proverbs that encompass a rich spectrum of reflections on all aspects of family life.
