商品簡介
Emphasizing the importance of a good knowledge of child development as a foundation for modern therapeutic interventions (inherited from developmental psychology), Vostanis looks at a cross-section of traumatized and vulnerable groups of children, while bringing together evidence, policy, practice, service development, and children’s narratives in his quest for connectedness and understanding, sans pity. In 22 chapters, he covers the meaning of developmental theories vis-a-vis traumatized children; changing services for vulnerable children; trauma and mental health; changing services culture; refugee children; and comes full circle to victim as perpetrator, exploring therapeutic approaches for dealing with youthful offenders. There are illustrations, bibliography, and about the author. Annotation c2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
