The contributors address the key themes in child neglect, draw on current research and practice knowledge and set out the implications for practice. With a joint health and social work focus, this interdisciplinary book is in keeping with policy for closer working.

Written for those working with vulnerable adolescents, this title shows ways of promoting resilience and positive social behaviour. It discusses peer pressure, moral responsibility, drugs and sexual relationships and offers an applied perspective on procedures of need assessment and intervention.
