<br/><br/> Safeguarding adults is a rapidly evolving area of professional practice. Already complex and contested in terms of definitions and application, it has been further problematised by significant legal and policy developments, both nationally and internationally. Written by a collection of authors with a wealth of academic and practice experience, this authoritative new guide critically engages with the recent developments in, and encapsulates some of the emerging approaches to, contemporary adult safeguarding practice.
