Fully updated to cover the impact of austerity, Brexit, the COVID-19 pandemic and cost of living crisis, this accessible textbook is essential reading for students, educators and practitioners of child and family social work.

It features:• clearly signposted ‘theory’ and ‘practice’ sections;• over 10 case studies including those drawn from the author’s experience;• end of chapter ‘Key points’ summaries;• further reading suggestions. With expanded coverage of race and intersectionality, contextual safeguarding and critical child protection, the book champions the development of resilient social workers working towards a more just and equal world.
