Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
A comprehensive social work education presumes knowledge of pertinent research. Clinical Social Work is designed to provide an overview of that research. Spanning two decades, it provides a summary of the existing empirical base for clinical practice. The book begins with a description and discussion of the basic principles regarding practice research. Subsequently each stage of clinical social work practice is examined in the light of the research foundations for the work done at that stage. The book will prove essential for those who wish to be totally up-to-date with current research.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 151-175) and indexes.
