Description

This scholarly work by Routledge examines the historical evolution of child health and welfare policies during a transformative period spanning 1880 to 1940. The book provides crucial context for understanding how medical and social initiatives were shaped by professional, political, and cultural attitudes towards children in the decades surrounding the First World War. By exploring the intersection of medical practice, welfare provision, and ideological interests, the volume reveals how historical perspectives on child protection have influenced modern approaches to child health and safeguarding. Essential reading for academics, healthcare professionals, historians, and policymakers seeking to understand the origins of contemporary child welfare systems and the complex interplay between medicine, society, and politics in shaping children's lives.
