"Unhappiness in children cannot be assessed in isolation from its context. Social, family and environmental factors may be significant contributory causes of unhappiness. Several well-known experts here describe the unhappiness to which children suffering from various handicaps or disadvantages are subject. The studies are wide-ranging and pertinent, and the approach is always sensitive and practical. This book will be of great interest and invaluable help to all who work with children."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved
