Is it possible to overcome the enduring problem of child
maltreatment? In Eradicating Child Maltreatment, leading
international figures in the field of child welfare address this
enduring and thorny question, setting out a public health approach
to prevention. It draws on groundbreaking research and practice on
prevention and early intervention from around the globe spanning
health, social care, education and criminal justice. Contributors
describe what is known about the incidence of child maltreatment,
how far we have succeeded in eradicating it, which preventative
strategies have been proven to be effective, and offers evidenced
recommendations for policy and practice. Aiming to draw us nearer
to the goal of a world free from child maltreatment first
articulated by the visionary paediatrician Dr. C. Henry Kempe in
1978, this important book provides new insights for professionals,
managers, academics and policymakers across the range of child and
family welfare services.
