Recensioner i media

'Professor Penny Cooper has produced an admirably concise and accessible guide to the legal issues facing social workers appearing in court. It will do much to demystify the court process and is full of sound, practical advice for social workers preparing for a hearing. It will be especially helpful to social workers new to family court proceedings. I heartily commend a book which might also benefit not a few lawyers.' - Sir James Munby, President of the Family Division, High Court of England and Wales
