The majority enter care due to neglect and abuse, with the consequent effects of these experiences on their health and well-being, exacerbated by the effects of separation from their birth family and subsequent placement moves. This much needed anthology is an essential guide to good practice in the field of the health promotion of looked after and adopted children.
