(Integrating psychological theories with empirical evidenc...)
Integrating psychological theories with empirical evidence, the author of this volume draws fundamental conclusions about the nature and types of relationships, and develops eight dimensions of relatedness ranging from the very casual to the deeply intimate. Each chapter examines a particular dimension and includes a brief life history of a person interviewed by the author. Particular attention is paid to how the type of relationship discussed shaped that person, with diagrams charting these relationships over time. The book also discusses how the sexes differ in the way they relate to others and the various forms that love can take.

(Breaking from traditional studies of women that focus on ...)
Breaking from traditional studies of women that focus on how women differ from men or use psychotherapy clients as research subjects, this book examines how "normal" women forge their individual identities. Presenting the stories of ordinary women who were interviewed first as college students and then 12 years later, living with the choices they made, the author shows the subtle yet significant differences in ways women form relationships, raise children, pursue careers and develop values. The author describes four divergent pathways women follow and outlines the choices, challenges and struggles each path presents.
