Recenzii

This book represents an important landmark in childhood studies. Tackling issues of stigma and discrimination, through to the challenges of effective service provision, it powerfully reveals the complexities of the problems faced by child-carers and their families. Allison James, Department of Sociological Studies, University of Sheffield

Governments and NGOs must act to provide support to children and young people affected by HIV and AIDS, recognising their special role as young carers. The recommendations in this groundbreaking, cross-cultural study are a good place to start. Carol Levine, Director of the Families and Health Care Project, United Hospital Fund, New York City
