Summary A unique teaching text, Principles of Social Work Practice gives exclusive and in-depth coverage of practice principles of social work and integrates them into the common base of practice. Student readers learn from case examples how to apply crucial ethical, personal, and methodological principles to different practice areas. As students increase their understanding of the nature of professional social work and the essence of its value base and Code of Ethics, they also learn to develop approaches to social work practice that are sensitive to a multicultural clientele. Readers acquire skills and a flexibility that allow them to work not only with individuals but also with families, couples, groups, organizations, and communities.
