'Developmentally-nurturant relationships are the foundational bases of thriving across the life span, and this unique and timely handbook brings together the world's leading scholars studying a prime instance of such relationships, those involving parents and their adolescent children. Researchers, students, and practitioners will find this volume to be an essential resource for cutting-edge, theoretically framed, and methodologically rigorous information about how to understand and enhance the diversity of these relationships across adolescence.'
