Slight wear to cover corners. PRevious owner's name on half-tile pg. Spine is tight; pgs are unmarked. A very nice copy. Focuses on work with organizations and communities, including planned change approaches and implementation. The text is distinguished by its unique practice model that shows students how to use communities and organizations to help clients, and a strong emphasis is placed on the iterative nature of planned change and the necessity of preparing oneself for conflict in any change effort.

Review

Here's what the reviewers are saying...

 

“Once again, Social Work Macro Practice remains the most complete text to pull together community and organizational practice for social workers.  I would continue to use it, and I have strongly recommended it to faculty at other institutions...”
