I have used previous editions in many situations, settings and levels, and endorse this latest as a must-have for anyone involved with social work. Explanation is clear and the use of tables, diagrams and cases bring the theory alive and enable users to realistically transfer theory to practice. The use of exercise and questions provide a springboard to deeper learning as do the handy references and pointers to further reading at the end of each chapter. Inclusion of sections such as the 'cultural and ethical considerations' lend themselves to self-analysis, exploration and ultimately self-development. A dream of a book to work with as an academic, tutor, practice educator and trainer...as well as student.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eMichele Winter, Independent Social Worker \u0026amp; Teacher\/Trainer, Social Care Training \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\"I can wholeheartedly recommend this revised and updated edition of Barbra Teater's highly successful book. It remains essential reading for practitioners, undergraduate and postgraduate students of social work. The book provides a compelling and easily accessible analysis of key theories and methods. It challenges both students and practitioners to consider and reconsider how they can apply theories and methods to practice more effectively.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eProf Hugh Mclaughlin, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"What a great book - Barbra Teater and colleagues have managed to bring together a wealth of learning about different theories and methods of social work intervention in a clearly written and accessible format. Each chapter is focused on the application of theory to practice, and as such helps to act as a bridge from the classroom to direct work with individuals, families and groups. This new and updated edition is very likely to be one of those books that students have by their side throughout their studies, and bring with them into professional practice after graduation.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eDr John Devaney, Centenary Professor of Social Work, University of Edinburgh, UK\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 274\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.58 x 9.61 x 6.69 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 12, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52706989244723,"sku":"9780335248193","price":99.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/dFd6ZnZqWU5zU2o2bThlamtxM0puUT09.webp?v=1763409596","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/an-introduction-to-applying-social-work-theories-and-methods-3e-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
