Recenzje

Students with school attendance problems are often treated as the problem. The commonsensical idea of understanding the problem as a larger family or systemic issue is to be applauded in this book. As such, the book offers practical scientific and informed practices for everyday implementation and truly translates research into practice from understandings of the pathology of school attendance.
