Reviews
"Angie Ash presents a strongly argued case for fundamental change in policy making and practice to protect older people from abuse and for a new approach that is informed by theory, critically aware and ethically driven. This book is written with clarity of purpose and perspective and deserves to be read widely." Dr Liz Lloyd, Reader in Social Gerontology, University of Bristol
"This book on safeguarding of older people presents a critical and balanced overview of practice, policies and research. With Angie Ash's ethical quest for the "right action", inertia can no longer be accepted. This book is essential reading and will become a classic training resource." Professor Marie Beaulieu, Universite de Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada
