Children's perspectives on integrated services: every child matters in policy and practice

Launching Palgrave's new 'Interagency Working in Health and Social Care' series, this book provides one of the first reflective assessments of the Every Child Matters legacy of New Labour. Woven through with the voice of the child, it examines the new landscape of children's services, in both principle and practice.
