Review
"The enduring strength of this text, which is only enhanced by such additions as the concept maps (CHARTS?) and study charts, is its ability to link theory and research with social work practice. The bio--psycho-social framework which is practically applied in the various case examples provides for students a realistic example of how to organize what they have learned in to a framework for assessment in practice. We are in a practice profession. For me, theory and research provides the foundation for building our assessments and interventions with client systems of all sizes. This book provides that foundation."
