Framing the issue of emotional maltreatment within a public health perspective, this work draws on published evaluation studies to examine 'what works' in preventing the occurrence and recurrence of emotional maltreatment of children. Issues are examined in the context of the UK's child protective services, but the concepts are applicable to all countries. The book overviews different approaches, which populations they work best for, and limitations and advantages of each. Methods for intervention described include parent training programs, parent psychotherapy, and cognitive-behavioral therapy. Implications for practitioners and policymakers are discussed, and further research needs are identified. An appendix summarizes key findings from referenced studies. The book is for family practitioners and professionals including social workers, health visitors, community pediatricians, and psychologists. Barlow is professor of public health in the early years at the University of Warwick, UK. McMillan is a research fellow at the University of Warwick.
