Review
Janice Purk, Mansfield University: "In the Knox/Schacht I really like the Special Topics that are available. These seem to cover areas which are not in the text that I am using." "It gives a good overview of the family system support of research and theory."
Lloyd Pickering, University of Montevallo: "The authors are to be commended for the readability of the text. This applies not only to the wording utilized, but also the structure of the material." "Using this book would allow a more thorough coverage of some areas where my class has been lacking."
Terry Hatkoff, California State University, Northridge: "My students like the text and the approach of the authors." "I would describe it as a well-written, student friendly text that covers a wide range of topics."
