| Summary: | "The singles' population is rapidly growing and doing so happily ever after. Instead of marrying, many singles nurture extensive social networks, develop self-sufficient lifestyles, and make flexible living arrangements. Happy Singlehood delves into these trends in a multi-method research and asks: "Which strategies help singles fight loneliness and social pressure? What can educators, policymakers, and urban planners do for happy singles? How will the future of happy singlehood look like?" Addressing these questions with authentic voices from around the world and up-to-date statistics, this book illuminates the coming age of singlehood. Singles and couples alike can benefit from seeing singlehood as a legitimate lifestyle, making the best out of whatever marital choice they take"--Provided by publisher |

Happy Singlehood charts a way forward for singles to live life on their terms, and shows how everyone—single or coupled—can benefit from accepting solo living. Based on personal inter views, quantitative analysis, and extensive review of singles’ writings and literature, author Elyakim Kislev uncovers groundbreaking insights on how unmarried people create satisfying lives in a world where social structures and policies are still designed to favor marriage. In this carefully crafted book, Kislev investigates how singles nurture social networks, create innovative communities, and effectively deal with discrimination. Happy Singlehood challenges readers to rethink how single people organize social and familial ties in new ways, and illumi nates how educators, policymakers, and urban planners should cater to their needs. |
