Description

This important book provides historical insight into how theory and practice have together shaped the development and identity of present-day social work. Including a close analysis of two well-known practitioner exemplars - Jane Addams and Mary Richmond - this ambitious survey considers the contribution and influence of a range of theoretical, research and practice developments, from early positivism and Marxism, to psychology, evidence-based practice and globalisation. Using a wide social science framework and now truly international in perspective, this new edition of a classic text will be of high value to advanced level students, researchers and professionals alike.
