Features: As the first book in this series, this volume primarily explores fundamental issues about the family. The family is the basic unit of social life and the organization closest to our daily lives. For the majority, the family is a warm concept, a cozy place, and another stage for living outside of the workplace. However, adapting to family life and handling family issues is not something everyone understands correctly. Most people merely participate in family life based on tradition, popular notions, and their own intuition. As a result, various problems often lie hidden within many families. As a foundational reading in family studies, this book mainly provides readers with basic theoretical knowledge and practical experience to understand the family. The target audience for this book consists of two groups: the first is adults who are about to establish a family or those living within a family but lack an understanding of it, for whom the book offers theoretical knowledge; the second is individuals aspiring to engage in family sociology research, for whom it provides basic theoretical knowledge. Therefore, this book combines the scientific rigor and precision of academic works while remaining highly relevant to real-life situations. It can be said to be both accessible and easy to understand.
