  Children are often victims of abuse, victims of crime, or witnesses to such. It is critical that adults get information from them that is accurate without projecting or terrifying the children. This is an authoritative, comprehensive guide to obtaining and evaluating information from children in a variety of settings - from school and home to courts of law and clinics. The authors show how professionals in diverse fields - including law, social work, paediatrics, education, and psychology - can better understand, interview, and assess children in order to make well-informed decisions regarding their welfare and treatment.
