Summary |
"This book is a foundation work for those interested in the practice and teaching of social work. The contributors cover theoretical areas and individual theorists. They discuss the historical context, philosophical roots, and major assumptions of each theory. The theme of this volume is that the person-in-environment perspective has been a central influence in the formation of the profession's knowledge base."--BOOK JACKET |
