Description and Table of Contents
Description
This book brings together contributions from writers specializing in research on major topic areas relevant to practitioners in the child care field. The initial chapters identify first how research is carried out, then the increasingly diverse household circumstances in which children are reared in Britain, and where children are cared for outside their families. The chapters which follow focus on forms of substitute care. The book is for students coming from a wide range of educational backgrounds. It aims to demystify research for students, and to explore and trace the relationships between research, policy and good practice.
