Opis

Based on her experience as an expert witness in court proceedings on adoption in Israel, and through four representative case studies, Mass examines the view that emphasizes the lifelong loss inflicted on the child by compulsory `closed' adoption, contrasting it with the need to `free the child for adoption' when parents are assessed as incapable.
