Synopsis
In this applied text, the authors, in conjunction with well-known contributors from the field of social work, discuss current trends in today's practice environments followed by a review of brief family practice models. They present the history, theory, and techniques of the following models: structural, strategy-based, cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, postmodern practice, psychoeducational, and family preservation perspectives. They also present sections in each chapter on: consistency within social work practice, research support, critiques, and relevance for use in managed care. Additional chapters cover family assessment, gender issues, gay and lesbian families, ethnic families, and family policy issues; and a concluding chapter focuses on new directions in brief family practice.

Review
"I would describe this book to a colleague by emphasizing what I see are the book's essential qualities: (It) covers brief methods and fits with today's managed care perspective; (it) addresses contextual issues such as ethnic families, gay clients, and gender issues; (it) addresses the unique concerns of social work; and (it) is readable and understandable for students. I would adopt this book for our family-centered social work practice course."
