Penelope Hall''s Social Services of England and Wales

This is Volume VI of eighteen in a series on Public Policy, Welfare and Social Work. Originally published in 1969, this study is a revision of Penelope Hall's book (1952) from the Social Science Department at the University of Liverpool, deemed necessary to reflect changes like the creation of the Ministry of Social Security in 1966 and the White Paper on the Child, the Family and the Young Offender, which made it impossible to discuss services for the care of children without consideration of penal services for juveniles.
