Neuware - 'The book is divided into four parts with a total of 23 chapters. The first two chapters constitute Part I of this book, which focuses on explicating our generalist-eclectic approach to direct social work practice. In Part II, high-level or meta-theories for direct practice are presented. The four chapters in this part focus on critical ecological systems theory, individual and family development theory, couples theory and intervention and strengths-based social work practice. Part III is divided into five sections and focuses on theories, models, and therapies for direct practice that are at a mid-level of abstraction. The five sections contain a total of 15 chapters on psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, humanistic, critical, and postmodern theories. Part IV consists of a summary chapter that considers the similarities and differences between the theories, models, and therapies that are reviewed in the book and the principles and values that are integral to our generalist-eclectic approach. The issue of integrating the use of theory with the artistic elements of practice via the problem-solving model is also revisited in this final chapter, and implications for research and practice are discussed. In addition to the book content, qualified instructors can request an ancillary package consisting of PowerPoints, an Instructor's Manual, and a Sample Syllabus'--.…
