Yet they are considered to be the most difficult to deal with by those who have the responsibility to protect and intervene in effective ways. In this book the author explores the concept of a damaged child, and asks what are the different types of injury, ranging from active to passive, physical to emotional, that stop children from reaching their full potential psychologically and physically? The author questions whether emotional damage to a child can be repaired and answers questions such as: \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eIs some injury irreversible?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWhat therapeutic techniques are available to deal with emotional abuse?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCan the abusers as well as the abused be helped to change?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eCase studies are provided to illustrate the features of emotional abuse, and chapters are devoted to the assessment and prediction of emotional abuse, effects of emotional abuse as the child grows up, intervention and treatment and working with the family as a whole.\u003c\/p\u003e  About the Author.  \u003cp\u003ePreface.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSECTION 1: The Problem.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e1.

Professor Iwaniec is well-known for her extensive research and writing in the areas of emotional abuse and neglect and failure to thrive in children. She is the author of nearly a hundred scientific and practice papers and many chapters in edited books. She has written several books on the subject of child care and child protection and some books have been translated into different languages. Her writing is influenced by continuous practice and empirical evidence.  While it is well known that the emotional effects of divorce, family violence or substance abuse can cause problems later in a child’s life, we have come to realise that overprotection and bullying at school can be equally crippling.  \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Emotionally Abused and Neglected Child, Second Edition,\u003c\/i\u003e discusses the ways in which we can identify and assess cases of emotional abuse and neglect.
