- catalog abstract ""In Family Mediation: Facts, Myths, and Future Prospects, Connie J.A. Beck and Bruce D. Sales trace the development of the field as well as current mediation practices and take a hard look at the consequences for families and the legal system. For families enduring divorce, it is presumed that mediating support, custody, and visitation issues is quicker, less expensive, and less painful than battling in court. But how valid are the claims of mediation's wide-ranging benefits? Borrowing from the experiences and methods of psychotherapy research, the authors offer an engaging, highly informative critique of family mediation practice and research to reveal the intricacies, inadequacies, and situations in which mediation is most effective. Legal and mental health scholars involved with families in divorce will gain a clear understanding of the substantial research needs and opportunities in the field and their implications for social policies."--Jacket.".
