Social Work Methods and Skills

A clearly framed and comprehensive introduction to practice methods, this important text explores how methods and skills can be combined to offer a versatile professional toolkit for practice. It interrogates the social work process within a range of settings, including working with involuntary clients, and within community and family settings.

This book will be particularly useful in preparing students for practice placements because it focuses on 'the doing' of social work, as well as providing a theoretical grounding in core social work knowledge.' - Dr. Jean Dillon, Senior Lecturer in Social Work, Middlesex University, UK 'Healy has a strong presence in international social work literature and is well respected for her accessible style, while also presenting content that is both informative and challenging. As usual, Healy presents her work with an inviting mix of personal knowledge, social work literature and - very importantly for the current context - well researched evidence.' - Roslyn Giles, Senior Lecturer and Director of Field Education, University of Sydney, Australia
