Sommario/riassunto

All parents experience stress as they attempt to meet the challenges of caring for their children. This comprehensive book examines the causes and consequences of parenting distress, drawing on a wide array of findings in current empirical research. Kirby Deater-Deckard explores normal and pathological parenting stress, the influences of parents on their children as well as children on their parents, and the effects of biological and environmental factors. Beginning with an overview of theories of stress and coping, Deater-Deckard goes on to describe how parenting stress is linked with problems in adult and child health (emotional problems, developmental disorders, illness); parental behaviors (warmth, harsh discipline); and factors outside the family (marital quality, work roles, cultural influences). The book concludes with a useful review of coping strategies and interventions



that have been demonstrated to alleviate parenting stress.

This ebook consists of a summary of the ideas, viewpoints and facts presented by Ted C. Fishman in his book "China, Inc.: How the Rise of the Next Superpower Challenges America and the World". This summary offers a concise overview of the entire book in less than 30



minutes reading time. However this work does not replace in any case Ted C. Fishman's book.<br>Fishman argues that China's labor force and low cost production are the main reasons for its impact on the global economy. He also analyses the consequences Chinese dominance will have on American economy and workforce.  <br>
