Wasted

Autor Patrick T. Murphy
en Limba Engleză Hardback – iul 1997
The public guardian of Cook County, Illinois, charges that the child welfare bureaucracy, designed to help children, is instead helping to destroy them. Murphy explains the facts and failures of the child welfare system-and offers solutions-better than any expert I've ever read on the subject....A first-rate read-poignant and instructive. -Edward I. Koch

Recenzii

A splendid book.
Honest and self-reflective...written with wit and great knowledge.
Wasted is a first-rate read-poignant and instructive.
Insightful and passionate...a book about responsibility and of how shirking it leads to social catastrophe.
A powerful indictment of the child welfare system...its message deserves a broad hearing among those who care about our society's children.
