It is the only collection that brings together theory-driven research on grandparenting from a wide variety of cultural and welfare state contexts - including chapters on Europe, North America, Africa, Asia and Australia - drawing broad lines of debate rather than focusing at a country level.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Building on the success of 'Contemporary grandparenting', edited by Virpi Timonen and Sarah Arber, this book further deepens our understanding of how social structures continue to shape grandparenting across a wide range of cultural and economic contexts. The book is essential reading and reference for researchers, students and policy-makers who want to understand the growing influence of grandparents in ageing families and societies across the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lucie Vidovicová\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Policy Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 308\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.65d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781447340652\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eVirpi Timonen\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of social policy and aging at Trinity College Dublin.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Policy Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44902482477171,"sku":"9781447340652","price":76.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_a0bd4015-035f-4ad0-b164-0bb6665dabfa.jpg?v=1777386737","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/grandparenting-practices-around-the-world-9781447340652","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
