Reviews

Carol Hayden is one of the leading figures in the area of youth exclusion and restorative justice. She writes clearly and knowledgeably about the ways in which those working in the residential sector can make a real difference to children's lives through restorative justice. It will become a key text in the field. Dr Hilary Cremin, Faculty of Education, University of Cambridge The over-representation of young people from residential care backgrounds in the criminal justice system is an issue of growing concern and understanding what justice means for children in residential care is very important. This book is a timely and intelligent contribution to this complex policy and practice problem. Will McMahon, Chair, Care Leavers' Association and Policy Director, Centre for Crime and Justice Studies, Kings College, London.
