Edited by Phil Jones and Gary Walker (Sage, 22.99, ISBN 13978849203807)
The rights of the child are now central to all fields involving children and multi-agency working and this book provides an update on the theoretical issues and key policy developments. As part of its focus on early years settings, it addresses how children have a right to speak - but also to remain silent. There is also a chapter on the child's right to play from the playwork profession's perspective. Review activities at the end of each chapter are useful for encouraging the reader to reflect on practice.
