This is a useful read for potential adoptive parents, or even the parents of children who have been separated from birth parents for any reason.

This compendium is top-notch. A couple of criticisms: The content is highly useful, but the editing needs help. Random and incorrect comma usage was distracting, and there are more than a few typos.
