'Engaging and accessible, this text will interest and be of value to the widest range of students and qualified practitioners in the children's workforce, including youth workers and those in the justice systemThe book really is a first in the way it tackles the concept of resilience and applies the idea to real life practice across the sector.' - Dr James Richardson, Senior Lecturer, School of Nursing, Kingston and St George's University of London. 'Though this book is written in an accessible style and provides a balanced approach, it does not shy away from the complexities of the topic at hand. Readable and engaging, it will appeal not only to under- and postgraduate students of childhood studies and other related courses, but also to more general readers, particularly those with a professional interest in resilience such as teachers, social workers and counsellors.' - Dr Paulette Luff, Senior Lecturer, Department of Education, Anglia Ruskin University
