'This second edition is a very welcome addition to the library shelf. Aimed at social work students and practitioners, this revised volume identifies the features of a critical approach to social work practice. These include commitments to anti-oppressive practice and social change, and the recognition that personal problems can be traced back to the socio-economic contents of individual lives. Any reader - from new student to seasoned practitioner - will find something here to sharpen up their critical thinking and the way they work' - Professional Social Work, 'The strength of this book lies in its coherent exposition of a critical stance towards both technocratic and structural social work, offering something strong and coherent in their place. It expounds an approach to critical practice that is both theoretically grounded and accessible to students and practitioners. Students can engage with the issues and use Fook'e(tm)s work to understand and develop their practice differently' Dr Carolyn Taylor Department of Applied Social Science, University of Lancaster 'This second edition is a very welcome addition to the library shelf.

Synopsis
In this text, Jan Fook provides a textbook that is organised with a reflective approach to social work. The reader is encouraged to develop his or her own ideas, using the material covered in this book., Social work is a human profession founded on social justice. It is difficult however to negotiate this in the constantly-changing context of the twenty-first century. Now in its Second Edition, this book considers the critical tradition of social work and updates it with postmodern thinking. Jan Fook draws on critical reflection to help social workers deliver flexible, responsible and responsive practice and to celebrate the ageless ideals of the profession. Jan Fook draws on her own experiences to relate theoretical ideas to real life. Summaries, exercises and further reading are also included in each chapter., This highly regarded book is now in its Second Edition . Widely recommended across social work degrees, Jan Fook is an authority on this subject.

    Unfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.

    I buy books from this seller all the time. The books are extremely affordable. Every once in a while there's an issue but more often than not, the outcome is positive. Packaging is just a thin sleeve with no bubble protection. This leaves the books open to damage in shipping. However, the seller ships for free. Book was actually in better condition than described - a nice surprise & greatly appreciated!! 👍 Thank you very much, seller!! I'll be back with another order!! 😀
