BOOK EXCERPT:
Karen Healy profoundly challenges, in the context of the postmodernity of late capitalism, many of the assumptions upon which the critical tradition in social work has been founded. This is a book which interrogates not only the emancipatory metanarratives of left perspectives from her position within the left, but also questions many of the received ideas about her professional power and identity, and about the kinds of social work practices necessary in order to continue to pursue welfare as an emancipatory project under transformed ideological and material circumstances. This is a most significant contribution to the debates which confront social work, worldwide, at the present time.' - Peter Leonard, McGill University, Canada

BOOK EXCERPT:
The eighth edition of this classic textbook confronts students with the two central issues of the social work profession: How can social workers help people deal with personal misfortune? and What can social workers do to help bring about a just society? Answers to these questions come from the book's four main sections. Part One offers perspectives about social work and the kinds of things social workers do. Part Two describes the major policies and programmes social workers use to help people. Part Four discusses helping methods -- the ways clients are connected to social resources -- employed by social workers. Part Five provides case studies that show these helping processes in action. The Field of Social Work s an excellent text for an introductory course in social work. It provides the student with a general introduction to the principles of social work, and proceeds to applications of specific social work methods, providing case studies that illustrate the applications of these methods. Changes that have been made in the Eighth Edition include } new chapters dealing with case management and social work with families } contemporary case studies such as an example of social work in an industrial setting } current methods of social work practice and the latest techniques for applying these methods } innovative ways of working with minorities } new material reflecting the growing interest in working with self-help groups

BOOK EXCERPT:
This book is a timely review of scholarship in social work supervision; re-examining the state of knowledge, research and practice; and asking if it is time for a new paradigm for the field. The contributors present a universal paradigm in social work around what we understand social work to be, not only through its practice of supervision but also what this contributes to the challenge of any dominant ideas or ideals about the supervision agenda in an increasingly globalised social work context. Capturing new developments from different regions of the world, the book shows how these can inform critical practice, professional development and well-being, and have a wider impact on accountability, effectiveness and work performance. The book will be appreciated by people needing or using services, novice or learner social workers, and those responsible for training or educating in supervision knowledge and skills or preparing to take up this important role. With applications for both academic research and practitioner-based learning, this book will help to ensure the best quality and supportive practice within the workforce and community it serves. This book was originally published as a special issue of the European Journal of Social Work.

BOOK EXCERPT:
William Borden's persuasive collection of original essays reaffirms the place of theory in social work practice, showing how different theoretical models, therapeutic languages, and modes of intervention strengthen eclectic and integrative approaches to psychosocial intervention. A distinguished group of scholars and practitioners examine emerging developments in cognitive theory, psychodynamic thought, resilience research and family therapy, psychobiography and narrative perspectives, and conceptions of place and environment in psychosocial intervention. They introduce integrative frameworks for intervention and examine a series of crucial issues in the field, including the role of theory in evidence-based practice, the development of practice wisdom, and the ways in which conceptions of love, acceptance, and social justice influence theorizing and practice. The contributors to this volume, each one carefully selected, reaffirm the framing perspectives and core values of the social work profession and identify fundamental challenges and tasks in developing theory and practice. Exploring contemporary yet no less essential concerns, they reflect the richness and creativity of theorizing in our time.
