It is a book for those who hunger for new ways of thinking about children and health care systems. It is a book for those who see or need to see the people of the world as interconnected. It is a book for people who want fuel for their own ideas about promoting psychological and physical health of children. --Journal of Pediatric Nursing "The contributors in the volume are distinguished, often leaders in their fields. They come from many countries, including the former Soviet Union, western and eastern Europe, Egypt, India, Ghana, Mexico, and from international organizations such as UNICEF and Worldwatch. They represent different disciplines, including education, the social sciences, public health, and the humanities. . . . The reader who is interested in certain places, as I was, will be rewarded." --Lewis Aptekar, review in World Psychology An international team of scholars, practitioners, educators, and policymakers from multiple and diverse nations analyzes the successes, failures, obstacles, and possibilities for promoting healthier development and well-being among children.
