This stimulating and authoritative book offers a distinctive analysis of the state of social work in contemporary Britain., This text aims to provide an authoritative analysis of the issues facing social work in the 1990s, as well as an introduction to the state of social work in contemporary Britain. It contains a number of maps, diagrams and illustrations. Among the issues covered are challenges from the state in the form of inquiries, reviews and recent legislative initiatives, including the Children Act and community care legislation. Challenges posed through the criticisms of social workers, users and potential users about the ways in which power and control are exercised in social work are also considered, as are challenges in the social and cultural diversity of needs which social work must meet, including issues of gender, ethnicity, sexuality and disability. These various demands for change in social work are discussed in the context of source materials. The book examines aspects of the historical development of social work and their relationship to the present crisis, and assesses the prospects for the future of social work.

    Amazing price and super fast shipping. Book arrived exactly as described in the correct box meant to ship books. No bumps or dings in the corner because of the attention to packaging. I'll keep an eye on this seller for another purchase. Highly recommend this seller!!!!

    The book that was shown was not the book that I received. Nonetheless, when I informed the seller that it wasn't the item they advertised-/they were more than willing to make it right. Since they didn't have another copy of the title I was expecting, they promptly issued an apology; and refund full refund. I really appreciated the speed at which they were willing to make things right with this transaction. I will definitely not hesitate to do business with them again. Thank You!
