Recensioner i media

The authors make a compelling case for the important role that developmental psychology should play in social work if its practitioners are to work well with individual children, adolescents and their parents. The range of theories offered, the examples provided and the guides to further reading studded throughout the text provide excellent support for the argument that relationship-based practices remain the bedrock of sound social work.
