Television in the Nursing Home: A Case Study of the Media Consumption Routines and Strategies of Nursing Home Residents

"Therapy with Single Parents focuses on the strengths of the single-parent family rather than its weaknesses, stressing the need to look at the socially constructed norms, values, and definitions associated with marriage and family in order to provide effective counseling. This unique book examines experiences that are common to single parents and presents interventive strategies for treating single-parent family issues drawing on clinical case studies to provide technical knowledge in everyday language."--BOOK JACKET.
