FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description Over 35 years ago, a Church of England commission on divorce expressed the view that humane divorce law should be administered with "maximum fairness and minimum bitterness". While changes to the law and in social attitudes do signify that some progress has been achieved, the objective seems as idealistic as ever. This handbook provides anyone contemplating separation or divorce with sufficient information and support to enable them to decide what further advice they might need and subsequently, the most appropriate course of action to pursue. Comprehensive in its explanation of legal procedures relating to divorce and sympathetic to the difficulties which are unique to separating or divorcing couples, it also addresses current proposals for divorce reform. This book should appeal to social workers, health professionals and general readers.
