Description

Sharon Shoesmith's book offers a thought-provoking analysis of the events surrounding Peter Connelly's death in 2007. In Learning from Baby P, she examines how media, politicians, and the public responded to this tragedy, exploring the psychological and emotional responses that followed. The author sheds light on the complex relationship between politics, the media, and child protection, highlighting how a climate of fear and blame can have negative consequences for vulnerable children and social workers. This book aims to deepen understanding of these issues and provide insight into the challenges faced by those working to protect children at risk. By exploring the aftermath of Baby P's death, Shoesmith provides a nuanced perspective on the difficult balance between holding individuals accountable and ensuring that those who need protection are safeguarded.
