Summary

This book brings together research from multiple disciplines concerned with intergenerational communication framed by several unique theoretical perspectives drawn from the communication discipline.Recent books on intergenerational relationships have provided a demographic and structural sociological analysis of intergenerational contact. Intergenerational Communication Across the Lifespan moves the study of intergenerational contact closer to the actual participants, to what happens within intergenerational interaction, and to how people evaluate their intergenerational experiences across the lifespan.
