Rezensionen

'Decisional privacy for a child, a multifaceted and presently poorly developed concept, is of critical importance in the evolution of parenting-related family law jurisprudence. This book offers real insight not presently elsewhere available. It is a must-read.'

The Honourable Justice Josh Wilson, Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia



'This book will appeal to those grappling with the tensions between children's rights, parental responsibilities and state duties in assessing children's best interests. Its innovative approach to decisional privacy will influence future best practice across the family justice community internationally.'

Professor Nicola Taylor, Faculty of Law, University of Otago, New Zealand
