Book synopsis

"The family" is a central feature of most people's lives, the framework within which other relationships, activities and events take place. But our families have changed greatly over the last generation, not only in the formal demographics of marriage, cohabitation and childbearing, but also in the social and economic relationships between men and women and between adults and children. This study is the result of a seven-year survey drawing on a sample of more than 5000 households, from the British Household Panel Survey - 10,000 adults - interviewed between 1991 and 1997. The survey has been analyzed by teams of specialists to build up an understanding of the dynamics of the family in such fields as household formation, employment, income, and so on. The material has now grown to the point at which the various lines of enquiry can be combined to provide a picture of "seven years in the lives of British families".
