Description

This scholarly reprint examines psychiatric social work as an established profession in Great Britain during a formative period from 1939 to 1962. Originally published in 1964, the book explores how social workers in the 1960s pursued professional recognition and the growing interest in their evolving status within healthcare. The work provides detailed analysis of professional training developments, profiles of qualified practitioners, and career trajectories of social workers during this critical era. It offers valuable historical insights into mental health policy implementation and the broader context of social work professionalisation in post-war Britain. Ideal for historians, social work researchers, and anyone studying the development of mental health services and professional social work practice in twentieth-century Britain.
