Family Carers and Caring: What It's All About

Family Carers and Caring makes a major contribution to current debates about the future of care in the UK. The authors offer strategic analysis, creative forward thinking and a new understanding of what family care and support could look like.

This excellent book presents a wide-ranging, informative and accessible discussion of what family care and carers are ‘all about’, with conceptual and theoretical material illustrated by case studies. Drawing on their extensive knowledge of the subject, Milne and Larkin argue for change in the place of family care within social care systems. This book will be a valuable resource for a range of students and researchers in social work, social policy and related subjects.

Family Carers and Caring brings together a range of material and evidence about carers from different sources presented in an accessible and yet academically informed way to make sense of the complexities of family carers and caring, carving a coherent path through the academic, policy, socio-political, and practice terrain.
