About This Item
Harmondsworth, England: Penguin, 1987. Paperback. Helping Troubled Children. Previous owners name stamp to inside cover and title page. Slightly sunned spine. This book is a full and clear account of the many problems encountered by young school-age children and how they can be given help. Children's problems range widely - from backwardness to aggression, delinquency and depression - and here the author carefully pieces together the different factors that may cause any one of them: physical disturbances, difficult family relationships, emotional trauma, unhappy experiences at school or in the community at large. One point the many case histories make clear is that a problem rarely stems from a single cause. it is only by tackling all possible causes that a troubled child can be helpt. This book should be of direct help and interest to all those professionally concerned with children - teachers, social workers, psychiatrists, doctors - and to parents. 373 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.). Reprint. Soft Cover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" Tall Octavo. Paperback.
