| Summary |
This book examines how to achieve improved outcomes for infants growing up in situations of risk due to parents' mental health and other related psychosocial circumstances that may impair parental functioning. These include migration, substance abuse, and infant hospitalisation. The authors examine the effects of adverse life circumstances on infant and family and, in most cases, also describe assessments and interventions. Several chapters have been written by people personally affected by mental illness, or mental illness of a family member. |
