The main theme of this book is the emergence of 'the child's voice' and the implications of this for social policy across countries and continents. 'It is a stimulating and challenging read and does much to promote participation agendas for children and young people. It would be of particular interest to academics, social policy-makers and child rights advocates.' - Mary Kellett, International Journal of Research and Method in Education 'This is an excellent book, which deals in a critical but constructive way with fundamental changes in the way in which children appear in the policy process.' - Tess Ridge, Social Policy
