"[T]he collection of readings provides a well-organized, thorough, and in-depth view of the practice, policy, research, and theories applicable in services to families and children . . . The book is a valuable resource for practitioners, policy makers, and academics. Faculty members who teach in a child welfare specialization, in particular, will want to consider making it required reading." — Carol Hostetter, Social Work Today
