In this third edition of the groundbreaking, global classic, Ruth E. Van Reken and Michael V. Pollock, son of the late original coauthor, David C. Pollock, have significantly updated what is widely recognized as The TCK Bible. Emphasis is on the modern TCK and addressing the impact of technology, cultural complexity, diversity and inclusion, and transitions. Includes new advice for parents and others for how to support TCKs as they navigate work, relationships, social settings and their own personal development. Specific updates:
● New models for identity formation

● Updated explanation of unresolved grief

● New material on "highly mobile communities" addressing the needs of people who stay put while a community around them moves rapidly

● Revamped Section III allowing listeners to more easily find what is relevant to them as Adult TCKs, parents, counselors, employers, spouses, administrators, etc.

● New "stages and needs" tool that will help families and organizations identify and meet needs

● Greater emphasis on tools for educators as they grapple with demographic shifts in the classroom
