Child Abuse: Child Abuse

By Bonnie Juettner

Child Protective Services currently protects nearly 3 million children, and the National Children's Alliance attests that children under the age of 1 are the most vulnerable to mistreatment or maltreatment. This necessary edition investigates the issues surrounding child abuse. The book examines how child abuse happens, how it is assessed, how it can be prevented, and the seriousness of child abuse in the United States.
