A Great Book with Compelling Insights

Wow, this book was a fascinating read! I’ve read several social policy & legal justice system books over the years and this is right near the top for me! It was well-written with gripping details and she did an incredible job weaving in her many years of research!
I really appreciated how Jessica compared and contrasted theory vs practice in the world of CPS. It made me think of the Einstein quote “In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are not”. Additionally, I liked her ability to consider multiple perspectives in the CPS system while she reflected on being a part of the system as she slowly grew apart from the system!
Being vulnerable enough to self-reflect in an honest way made for a great book!
p.s. Should the author write a follow-up book, I’d be interested to read her thoughts on how AI & automation could potentially help/harm CPS in the future!
