With major changes in the age and character of children being adopted, the issues surrounding adoption have grown in complexity.  As increasing numbers of older children and children with histories of abuse, neglect and rejection are being placed for adoption, their developmental needs and the demands they make on parents and post-adoption services is considerable.

David Howe's authoritative book explores and explains current understandings of adopted children's social, behavioural and personality development.  It analyses the wide range of research and theoretical perspectives available on adoption and identities the major patterns and theories arising. The book introduces the reader to the full range of knowledge and understanding on the development of adopted children. Case examples and illustrations are used throughout to give an immediate and lively feel to the information presented.
