Description

Product Description Social work in the community offers practice guidance to students, practice assessors and practitioners within a political, theoretical, methodological and ethical framework. The book is written from an experiential learning perspective, enabling the reader not only to understand the ideas and methods but to test them out in their own practice, which additionally provides an element of problem-based learning. Social work in the community is addressed from local community development and profiling to global perspectives of an international community. The book is written within the framework of the practice curriculum for the social work degree, which will enable students to use the book to make sense of their practice in relation to the knowledge, skills and values of social work practice in its community context. Review "The essence of good social work is the 'social' - seeing, relating to, and supporting people in context. This book is key to help make that happen.
