Description:

This comprehensive sourcebook and reference covers a wide range of practical, theoretical, and legal issues which all health and social work professionals must know and understand to work in child protection. It provides a practical and evidence-based account of key, contemporary developments in child protection practice in the UK, particularly reflecting the most recent Government guidelines and proposals. With media focus so often on the failures of care, this book is intended to provide the care team with the underpinning and practical knowledge to carry out their work with confidence.

  • Practical - Examines the issues grounded in reality giving the reader confidence in practice
  • Comprehensive - Covers a broad review of what constitutes child abuse and characteristics of the abused and the abusers
  • Authoritative - Contributors are senior professionals known nationally and internationally for their specific expertise in this area
  • Research based - Provides a through guide to what research and policy initiatives can give to the practice of the reader
  • Thoroughly revised and updated
  • Reflects the latest UK government initiatives and legal steps. Much has changed since 1995!
  • The current edition could only reflect partially the 1995 report "Messages from Research", whereas contributors have all now had several years to explore and debate the findings and reflect these in the chapters.
  • Looks more at preventative family support and not simply as narrowly as before at child protection.
  • The current edition looks only very briefly at institutionalized abuse, whereas this edition much more fully with an area of concern that has grown considerably over the last five years.
  • Much more polished and coherent vignettes of good practice. More case material generally
  • Includes issues of foster care.
  • Improved content on implications for future practice.
