  A Joint Working Party was set up in 1986 to establish the outcome of money spent on preventive health care for children. This edition comprises the latest assessment of research on this subject. It includes much new information about screening for hearing loss, vision defects, biliary atresia, and iron deficiency anaemia. The entire approach to primary prevention and health promotion has been revised and given greater prominence. Issues such as postnatal depression, prevention of cot death and accidents, and support to stressed parents, are reviewed in detail.
