Sinopsis
Social Work Practice suggests that practice decisions based on weak criteria such as popularity of specific techniques in the profession may harm rather than help clients; it illustrates how social workers can make use of empirical data to achieve a greater understanding of client problems and provide the best and most appropriate services. Gambrill offers a contextual framework in which both clients and their problems are viewed in relation to their environments. Each chapter contains case illustrations, study questions, check lists, and boxes and charts which summarize the material.

Críticas
"This is a seminal text in social work practice. This is not a cook book text. I think it is the best thing that has been written in the field. Gambrill has a unique ability to integrate theoretical material with hands on practice techniques. I have not seen this done so effectively in any other book." --Cynthia Franklin, University of Texas, Austin"I think this is a terrific book. Everything is in there and if you read this book you really don't need to read any other book on social work practice. It is a masterpiece, the classic book for graduate level education in social work practice." --Richard Dangel, University of Texas, Austin"Two years ago a major study of knowledge development in the profession, sponsored by NIMH, found substantial deficiencies in the current social work practice textbooks. The primary criticism was that most of the current books lack an empirical foundation for teaching practice methods. Gambrill's book addresses this issue with a powerful and easy to read text. I think the focus on developing critical thinking skills is the unique and most important addition of this textbook. Gambrill is among the top 3 or 4 most respected scholars in our field. She has earned her reputation through careful and serious scholarship. Her textbook evidences these qualities while maintaining readability and balance." --Duncan Lindsey, University of California"I believe that this book has the potential to be a classic. The critical thinking content is crucial and unique. The description of practice is concrete for the most part, a characteristic not typically found in generalist practice texts. Good practice is documented with empirical evidence and draws on the best research in the field. The description of the context of practice is outstanding. The book is scholarly, well documented, and draws on a very wide array of research and theory...indeed more so than any competitors." --Charles Cowger, University of Illinois"Excellent book that is needed in social work practice classes."--Julia Hamilton, Southern Connecticut State University"This is a unique book which brings together in an integrated way sound principles of evidence-based practice and the traditional values and ethics of the profession. No mean task."--Don Carpenter, University of Minnesota, Duluth"A wonderful text that brings the vital lens of critical thinking to social work practice."--Susan Sarnoff, Ohio University "This is a seminal text in social work practice.
