Reviews
'An interesting, stimulating, original and eminently readable book.' - International Journal of Law, Policy and the Family 'The substantive analysis is perceptive, powerful and, to the reviewer, largely persuasive...there is much to be learned from this book.' - John Eekelaar, Journal of Law and Society 'King has succeeded in producing an accessible and readable book in a theoretical field which is often, for the uninitiated, bordering on the indecipherable ... clearly provides an important antidote to much in the child care field which is often theoretically unsophisticated, over-pragmatic and utilitarian.' - Nigel Parton in The Journal of Social Welfare and Family Law 'This is a book which stretches the mind and forces us to look at problems surrounding child protection, children's rights, family support and so on, in new ways.' - Journal of Social Policy 'Provokes one to re-think one's assumptions ... a welcome addition to the literature.' - British Journal of Social Work 'Opens up new ways of thinking about familiar issues.' - LCCJ Newsletter
