Recenzii
'This book contains a wealth of material which would be of most use to children's departments and policy makers who commission resources. It is not so much a 'handbook' as a textbook, with an excellent glossary and list of references.' - Judi Lyons, Independent Social Worker and Practice Teacher
‘A splendidly thorough account of what is involved in parenting interventions, together with a convincing argument on why proper assessments of efficacy are essential.’ – Sir Michael Rutter FRS, Professor of Developmental Psychopathology, Institute of Psychiatry, King’s College London, UK
‘"Societies benefit when children thrive," Kirsten Asmussen notes, in launching her compelling overview of best practice in equipping parents for their most important role in life. The book encompasses the origins and nature of evidence-based parenting practices, how to improve these practices through evaluation and monitoring, and how to build broad systems for community-wide parenting support. Asmussen’s analysis is both scholarly and highly accessible. It is a valuable resource for professionals, program directors, and policy-makers who work to support good parenting and to strengthen families.’ – John R. Weisz, Professor of Psychology, Harvard University, USA
'Finally, a clear and comprehensive book that tells the truth to practitioners and policymakers about parenting. You don’t have to guess about how to help parents. Good evidence exists and more is on the way. Learn it and use it!' – J. Lawrence Aber, Distinguished Professor of Applied Psychology and Public Policy, New York University, USA
‘Kirsten Asmussen compellingly demonstrates why good intentions are not enough for those providing parenting support services. Her book is essential reading for policymakers and practitioners who want their work to be evidence-based and for anyone who thinks it already is.’ – David Utting, independent writer, researcher and policy analyst
