The author is a proud sponsor of the A 2020 SAGE Keith Roberts Teaching Innovations Awardaenabling graduate students and early career faculty to attend the annual ASA pre-conference teaching and learning workshop.The family patterns seen in recent decadesacohabitation, divorce, nonmarital childbearing, same-sex marriage and childrearingacan seem like radical changes from the past. But upon closer examination, many are consistent with broader trends that have been going on for centuries. Sociology of Families: Change, Continuity, and Diversity considers this tension between change and continuity, situating families in a social, historical, and economic context, and emphasizing how these contexts create family diversity and inequality. By incorporating diverse family structures into each chapter, author Teresa Ciabattari has written a text that challenges idealized assumptions about how families should be, and instead explores the complex realities of how families actually are.Contributor to the SAGE Teaching Innovations and Professional Development Award Find out more at www.sagepub.com/sociologyaward
