A comprehensive introduction to the issues families face todayRevel(TM) Marriages & Families: Changes, Choices, and Constraints explores important contemporary changes in society and the family through the lenses of the choices that are available to family members and the constraints that often limit their choices.

Informed by extensive research on how people read, think, and learn, Revel is an interactive learning environment that enables students to read, practice, and study in one continuous experience - for less than the cost of a traditional textbook.
