Understanding Children′s Social Care is the first book to provide a comprehensive overview and critical analysis of children′s social care in England following the introduction of Every Child Matters and the 2007 Children′s Plan. The book examines the key issues surrounding child care policy and legislation, and the implications these have for practice. Authors Nick Frost and Nigel Parton draw upon sociological theory and debate to help the reader understand the future direction of policy and practice, presenting seemingly complex theoretical ideas in an accessible and coherent manner.

"These two authors are always worth reading for their breadth and
originality. Their new book offers a timely and stimulating analysis of
modern children′s services."
- David Berridge, Professor of Child and Family Welfare, University of Bristol
"Clear yet thorough; practical yet politically insightful; complicated yet coherent ... this book will appeal to those who want to get an overview of the territory, but also to those who wish to drill down deeper and understand the theoretical underpinning of government policies."
- Martin C Calder, Honorary Research Fellow, Sheffield Hallam Univeristy
