How are adoptions arranged? How far do the present adoption service
really meet the needs of the adoptive family? Originally published
in 1966, these are the questions examined in this searching
investigation - at the time one of the few to be undertaken since
legal adoption was introduced in this country in 1926. The scope of
the survey is comprehensive for every type of adoption is included:
those arranged by societies, by local authorities, by relatives and
private individuals. Each step in the process is described and
appraised both from the angle of the agencies and of the adopters.
The careful analysis of agency policy and practice and the
compelling accounts of the adopters' experiences and attitudes
makes this report of particular interest to anyone concerned with
the development of this branch of the social services and its
history. The writer had extensive and varied social work
experience, both in the statutory and voluntary field, and had
herself arranged adoptions.
