Patterns of Adoption by David Howe
With recent changes in the variety of children needing adoption, issues about adoption have become more complex. As older and more disturbed children are being placed for adoption, the demands these children make on post-adoption workers and parents are considerable. This text takes a broad sweep of the major research and theoretical perspectives on adoption by reviewing the work of several disciplines within psychology, sociology and social work. The book gives readers a broad understanding on the development of children before, during and after they are adopted.
“An easy-to-read book which covers a broad range of research on the social and psychological development of adopted children…likely to be particularly helpful to both parents and workersIt is therefore recommended reading.”
