Produktbeschreibung
The interplay between Power, Communication and Change is the bedrock of what Social Work is, what it needs to contend with and what it seeks to achieve. This textbook draws on these foundational concepts in order to combine the worlds of theory and practice, aiming to connect the two often disparate sides of Social Work.
Drawing on the key concepts of Power, Communication and Change throughout, the book shows that these essential elements are evident in the explanation and application of all theory and practice perspectives. Divided into three sections, this work delves into each of these underpinning concepts in turn, demonstrating how they permeate all aspects of Social Work. Chapters address dimensions of Power and embedded social structures; the complexities of Communication and approaches to difficult conversions; and how assessment skills along with a range of practice models can help to challenge injustices and facilitate Change. In doing so, these chapters get to the heart of Social Work, by iterating the foundational goals of dispersing Power, fostering effective Communication and supporting Change.
Written in an accessible style that is both clear and engaging, this book will be of interest to all students of Social Work and Social Work professionals.
