Product Description
Examining the major developments in social work from moral, philosophical and political perspectives, the highly respected and experienced contributors to this text analyse social work values and place them firmly in a modern, practical context.
From the Back Cover
Current changes in social work practice pose moral and political dilemmas for practitioners,students, social work educators and policy makers alike. The contributors to The Values of Change in Social Work, all experienced and eminent social work practitioners and social work theoreticians, analyse social work values in relation to these changes in practice. They examine major developments in social work from moral, philosophical and political perspectives and place them in context. Some describe theoretical and practical difficulties faced by social workers in changing forms of practice, while others deal with a particular change and examine it in detail. This uniquely practical approach presents the complex arguments surrounding social work 'values' accessible to both students and practitioners.
