Description
Child Abuse and Neglect: Attachment, Development and Intervention by David Howe provides a comprehensive survey of the field from a modern developmental attachment theory perspective. It explores how attachment difficulties manifest in children's behaviour and delves into abuse, neglect, and compound cases, backed by empirical research evidence and real-life case material. The book offers a thorough review of attachment-based interventions, anchored in research evidence and focused on practice implementation. This makes it an invaluable resource for practitioners and student practitioners specialising in child welfare, who will find the answers to their most pressing questions within its pages. Written by an expert author, this textbook is grounded in empirical research and aims to provide practical guidance for those working with vulnerable children.
