by Andrew Pithouse
Part of the Routledge Revivals series

Description
First published in 1998, this book sets out to shed sociological light upon the much under-researched realm of day-to-day child care practice.
The text broke new ground when first published in 1987 and there have been few, if any, similar books that adopt an ethnographic approach to statutory child care practice.
A second edition would still 'speak' to this rarely analysed occupational world.
However, it would enjoy greater resonance when up-dated with practitioner viewpoints on the extent to which the findings remain pertinent today - which is likely to be the case.
The book offers no conclusions other than it demonstrates that the 'invisible' world of practice cannot be readily understood or changed unless grasped through an interactionist sociology.
The book is aimed at a social work/social welfare market as well as a sociology of profession/organization readership.
