Rezension

"However, for the time being, it remains a valuable resource for health visiting students across the country." (Journal of Health Visiting, 1 February 2014)
"Overall, however, this is a welcome updating of a classic publication." (Nursing Children and Young People, 1 March 2013)
"I would expect this book to be a port of call for many students health visitors and I think readers will find it covers a wide range of interesting, relevant subjects ... However, this shouldn't deter them from reading this instructive, concisely edited book." (Community Practitioner, 1 July 2012)
