Summary

This timely new edition of a popular and lively text offers a more explicitly theorized introduction to direct work with abused children. With an increased emphasis on evidence-based work, it helps practitioners understand abused children's perspectives and their sometimes seemingly paradoxical behavior. Sensitivity is displayed throughout for issues of difference, particularly in ethnic heritage and ability/disability. Overall, this is an insightful and wide-ranging introduction to all aspects of child abuse and the practical strategies available for prevention, intervention and support.
