This book sets out the current state of knowledge about what works
in reducing impairments to children's health and development.
Little and Maughan's book applies a high standard of proof and
reproduces only the work of the leading intervention scientists
from around the world. After discussing the real world challenges
to more effective children's services, the book goes on to cover
policy and practice proven to change the lives of all children, and
extends also to effective programmes targeted at children with
specific disorders. Examples include changes in household income,
early years support, moving families to less disadvantaged
communities, improving parenting and using schools to better mental
health. The benefits of evidence-based programmes are specified, as
are the costs to society of not intervening. The evidence is used
to make recommendations about getting effective policy and practice
into routine use, and includes illustrations of successful
applications of these ideas.
