This book presents an innovative framework for conceptualising families as complex systems and for understanding and supporting positive change, adaptation and resilience. The development of this framework was based on a qualitative and abductive research process targeting change and resilience processes in multi-challenged families.

Ana Teixeira de Melo is a Psychologist and Researcher at the Centre for Social Studies, University of Coimbra, Portugal. She has been tracing a highly interdisciplinary research pathway working at the crossroads of different domains and in close contact with contexts of professional practice. She has been exploring contributions of complexity-informed frameworks to understanding change processes in human systems and to guide the management of change and interventions in complex human systems. She is the author of Performing Complexity: Building Foundations for the Practice of Complex Thinking (2020) and of family programs such as the Integrated Family Assessment and Intervention Model (2011), Travelling Through Lands of Parenthood (2014) and Searching Family Treasure (2009).
