We all go through transitions in life: some are small and seemingly mundane, while others are big and more obviously life-changing. In everyday life, we talk about transitions without thinking too much about the term. Offering a clear, concept-led framework, this book provides a fresh way of understanding change across the lifespan. It unpacks the processes, markers and social conditions that define transitions, drawing together theories of change to reveal how we can better support people before, during and after major life shifts. By examining three core transitions - from pre-school to school, from youth to adulthood and from worker to pensioner - this book demonstrates how a focused conceptual approach can strengthen practice across diverse settings. Essential reading for researchers and practitioners in social work, health and social care, education and related professions, Transitions will enable readers to recognise, interpret and respond to life changes with greater confidence, clarity and care.
