Reviews

'This thoroughly revised and well-crafted overview usefully draws together a range of empirical evidence on the life course and its stages, as well as examining theoretical and conceptual issues. Hunt's book is rigorous, simulating and very accessible. For me, it is the leading text book in its field.' -Jane Pilcher, University of Leicester, UK 'Stephen Hunt provides an up-to-date, comprehensive, and important overview of the contemporary life course. He captures the enormity of social changes in institutions, demographics, technologies, economies and lifestyles that are upending conventional roles and routines as well as expected transitions and trajectories, fostering both uncertainty and risk.' -Phyllis Moen, University of Minnesota, US
