With expert contributions from psychological, sociological, and legal perspectives, it offers scientific analysis and debate on whether the best interests of the child should be the primary consideration in deciding child custody cases in cases of divorce or separation or whether it should be one of several primary considerations.

Cutting-edge topics explored include: transnational shared parenting; alternative dispute resolution; breastfeeding parents; religious disputes between parents and the psychological, social and economic factors that affect shared parenting. will be essential reading for scholars and graduate students in law, psychology, sociology, and economics interested in shared parenting and family law.
