Bronfenbrenner is a must for family researchers to define the variables of human development from the individual to the community and world surrounding them. A highly recommended theory for social/family researchers.

I have been in search of this book at an affordable price for many years. Bronfenbrenner’s ‘ecological systems’ model is a brilliant framework through which to look at inextricable factors present in the individual’s developmental environment. His definitions and hypotheses are clearly stated, his argument is sound and thought provoking and he brings together psychological theory and concepts that enhance theoretical understanding.
A collector’s book, excellent price, condition and value
