Boocock (emeritus, sociology, Rutgers U.) and Scott (education, Hofstra U.) discuss findings regarding children's experiences within the contexts of the family and social groups outside the home. They also look at how mass media and the so-called international children's culture is affecting relations between kids and adults. In the final chapter, they consider how social science research may be applied to the task of bettering children's lives. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
