ResumoThis introductory chapter provides an overview of the life course and social network perspectives and suggests how the integration of life course and social network ideas can further the study of both. An overarching framework is presented within which the understanding of social networks can improve the understanding of the life course, and vice versa. The chapter outlines the volume's origins and organization, including summaries of the chapters in its nine sections, which begin with theoretical perspectives and extend to practical applications for prevention and social amelioration strategies using social networks.
