While these child and family welfare systems confront similar problems and incorporate common elements, there are substantial differences in philosophy, organization, and operation across international settings and models.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this new collection of essays, Nancy Freymond and Gary Cameron have brought together some of the finest international minds to provide an original and integrated discussion of child protection, family service, and community caring models of child and family welfare. The volume not only examines child protection and family service approaches within Western nations - including Canada, the United States, England, the Netherlands, France, and Sweden - it is also the first comparative study to give equal attention to Aboriginal community caring models in Canada and New Zealand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe comparisons made by the essays in this volume allow for a consideration of constructive and feasible innovations in child and family welfare and contribute to an enriched debate around each system. This book will be of great benefit to the field for many years to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nancy Freymond\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/20\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 330\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.23lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.06w x 0.89d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780802093714\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNancy Freymond\u003c\/strong\u003e is an associate professor in the Faculty of Social Work at Wilfrid Laurier University. \u003cb\u003eGary Cameron\u003c\/b\u003e is a professor emeritus in the Faculty of Social Work at Wilfrid Laurier University.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44185116213363,"sku":"9.7808E+12","price":105.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_062548f5-7377-4abf-8b99-3549e62a5423.jpg?v=1767100833","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/towards-positive-systems-of-child-and-family-welfare-international-comparisons-of-child-protection-family-service-and-community-caring-systems-9780802093714","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
