Description

This book deals with child abuse and neglect as it presents itself in primary care. Readers will gain a better understanding of how the child protection process works. The book takes a broad perspective, taking into account domestic violence, adult survivors of abuse and the often forgotten plight of children who are in the care of local authorities. A primary care perspective of this complex and challenging subject is maintained throughout.
