Child safety is everybody's concern, but much professional activity
is misinformed or based on a misrepresentation of the facts, and
preventative action is rarely adequately evaluated. Written by
researchers with an active role in social policy, this text
challenges our understanding of the problem of child safety and
points to the impotence of "educational" approaches based on
"knowledge enhancement". The message is that improving children's
knowledge has little or no effect on their behaviour. From the
physical abuse of young children to drug abuse in adolescence, this
work presents a radical perspective on a key social issue.
