Book Description
This is a second edition of Ann Hill Beuf's admirable book about the social situation of hospitalized children in twentieth-century America.
The author includes details and examples drawn from the day-to-day life of children in hospitals to show their responses to this frightening experience and to examine as well the frustrating mission of the people who care for them. She suggests ways parents and medical professionals can better answer the needs and respect the right of hospitalized children.
