| book description |

This timely Handbook presents vital perspectives underpinning historical, current and emerging trends within family and education studies. Editors Sivanes Phillipson, Wendy Goff and Susanne Garvis bring together a diverse collective of authors to holistically depict the unique role of families within education. The Handbook on Families and Education is an important compendium of both theoretical and real-world studies, shedding light on various interdisciplinary perspectives covering sociology, linguistics, economics, and public policy. Both historical and contemporary research models, including integrative models, the Actiotope Model, and the Peripheral Model, are utilized to highlight the truly central role of the family in learning processes, and to ultimately encourage readers to finalize their own educational theories. Scholars and students of sociology, education policy, teaching, and early childhood education will find this Handbook to be of great interest. Educators will additionally benefit from its practical insights.
