“This book … combines progressive research and practice designed to revolutionise how we support children and families, either through preventing child care proceedings, or by helping them navigate a complex child protection process. The authors' collective experience, underpinned by compassion and a clear understanding of the impacts of intergenerational trauma on development and family functioning, leads the way to a more compassionate, integrative and individualised approach to helping those children and families who live on the edge.” (Arlene Vetere, Professor of Clinical Psychology, University of Surrey, UK)
“This book provides a superb overview of some of the most recent advances in knowledge across the fields of research, theory and applied clinical practice with children at the edge of care. It is compulsive reading and should be a core text for all practitioners working with this clinical group.” (Jane Barlow, Professor of Evidence-Based Intervention and Policy Evaluation, University of Oxford, UK)
