Langue : Anglais
Auteur : ROGERS
The third of five books in McGraw-Hill's new series NEW DIRECTIONS IN SOCIAL WORK, this new text provides an overview of the many issues related to human behavior and the social environment that are relevant to social work practice. With the help of this book, students will be able to discern theoretical, developmental, and sociological themes that they will keep exploring as they move through their professional life, and they will have a better grasp of the ways in which all of these pieces of information can fit together to help them address client problems and interventions. The text draws on the rich knowledge base that exists in various disciplines to help students ask pertinent questions, conceptualize the complexity of human problems, and pursue their own knowledge to find answers to the various problems with which they will grapple as social workers.
