Child Protection Practice by Harry Ferguson
How do practitioners step up to the professional challenge of keeping children safe? Leading author Harry Ferguson draws on his own research, personal experience and real-life case studies to challenge the way we think about child protection. This highly original and engaging book captures the daily reality of practice within life's most personal spaces, and offers a rare insight into the lived experience of working with vulnerable children, their parents and other carers. An inspiring declaration of the need for a new, intimate approach to child protection, this ground-breaking book lays the foundations of skilful, authoritative practice. It is a must for Social Work student and practitioners within this challenging field.
Utterly distinct in portraying the reality of how the job looks, feels, smells and sounds as practitioners move between office, car and home* Professor David Howe, author of 'Child Abuse and Neglect: Attachment, Development and Intervention' *
