Reviews

Extremely insightful to policy-makers and judicial officers who promulgate laws and make decisions daily. Will be helpful in training new lawyers and judges on the child welfare system. Great intro. for paralegal students. --Penny Willrich, Phoenix College<br> Needed research, great supplemental resource, not too long, well illustrated, attractively done. --Elizabeth Watson, Andrews University<br> Does a remarkable job of bringing together the cold reality of statistics and the heart of compassion for small children. Its justification for developmentally sensitive child welfare policy and practice is compelling; must reading for those preparing to work in child services. --Jim Kreider, Kansas University<br>
