Well-Being Over the Life Course: Incorporating Human–Animal Interaction: SpringerBriefs in Well-Being and Quality of Life Research

Autor Regina M. Bures, Nancy R. Gee
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 dec 2020
This book provides a multidisciplinary overview of the impact of human–animal interaction on well-being from childhood to later life. It presents a life course perspective to the study of human–animal interaction, addressing concepts of family and the role of pets therein, as well as the impact of companion animals on child development and successful aging. This book fills a gap in the existing literature by framing the study of human–animal interaction, including the role of animal-assisted interventions on well-being, in a broader social and behavioral context.
