"I liked the way the authors linked key issues in working with elder abuse to major issues like social policy...This book takes us forward and I hope other authors will learn from what Biggs et al have done. They have summarised critically, analysed and challenged ideas, but have not been boring, repetitious and regurgitated what we already know." - Community Care "...manages to review the subject to date in a way that is useful to practitioners, students and interested social observers alike." - Health Matters "This is a thought-provoking work and it manages to strike a sensible balance between theory and pragmatism. It should appeal to many relevant professions." - Age and Ageing "...a truly well-written, informative and stimulating book which provides an excellent framework for considering the problem of elder abuse within a broad perspective...This reviewer highly recommends this book to all those interested in better understanding the problem of elder abuse." - Ageing and Society "Those unfamiliar with elder abuse will find this book covers the ground very thoroughly, while readers with previous knowledge could get new insights in this complex area." - Professional Social Work
