The authors draw on their own practice experiences to ensure the discussion remains highly relevant to everyday realities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book consists of three parts: Part I examines the history and context of family support; Part II outlines a number of practice approaches to family support; and Part III suggests how family support work can be further developed.
