Summary

. The Framework of Systemic Organization is a must for graduate and undergraduate nursing courses. The volume will also be of interest to students in family studies, social work, occupational therapy, and other health care/public health professions.
For the first time, Marie-Luise Friedemann's theory for nursing that centers primarily on the family is presented in its entirety. Friedemann provides a clear description of the framework of systemic organizations, validating the concepts through existing research findings and case studies that explore the use of the framework with families.
While explaining the interaction of modifying factors such as the family structure, life span considerations, and cultural influences within the family, The Framework of Systemic Organization emphasizes family health and healthy adaptation to change. It then focuses on crises resulting from illness and the environment - such as poverty and homelessness - and explores the effects these factors have on family members' wellness.
