Synopsis

This book presents a positive view of community care and the place of social work within it. It describes the major changes introduced into the social services system and their effects upon professional development. Parallels are also drawn with changes in other systems such as health, social security and housing. The careful integration of practice issues makes this a core text for students of social work qualifying programmes, especially those following a particular pathway in community care.
