Childhood: Services and Provision for Children provides an important and
timely contribution to the field of Childhood and Youth Studies. This cutting-edge
text brings together, within a critical framework, an understanding and discussion
of a broad range of services, ideas and themes, and debates the impact of
them on children's lives.
The text takes a truly multi-disciplinary perspective,
reflecting the wide-ranging experience and backgrounds of the authors and
contributors. The wealth of real case study material and reflective activities
within each chapter helps develop the evaluative tools and critical skills
essential for an understanding of the complex social, political and environmental
issues surrounding childhood today and thus makes this an essential text
for those studying in this field.
