Child abuse : law and policy across boundaries
"This book looks across the legal and geographical boundaries within which the legal discussion of child abuse is usually confined. It considers the themes and policy considerations driving each form of legal response to the problem of child abuse. It provides a detailed discussion of the law governing the trial of allegations of child abuse in the key areas of family, criminal, and tort law in English law; and compares this with the approaches in other common law jurisdictions using the adversarial mode of trial, in particular in Canada, the United States, New Zealand, Australia, and Scotland."--Jacket
