Karen K. Kirst-Ashman's introductory text enhances students' ability to grasp the essence and spirit of generalist social work and the issues in social welfare that social workers address everyday. Intended to give students contemplating a career in social work a solid introduction to the profession, Kirst-Ashman presents a balanced, introductory look at the profession, practice concepts, social welfare policy concepts, the history and current concerns of the profession of social work, contexts and populations served, and student development. The book also presents a unifying theme of critical thinking, intended to train students to be more evaluative of key concepts in social work from the very commencement of their interest in this potential career.

Críticas

"This text is an exciting and refreshing way to present the material. Classroom discussion is lively and I have noticed that exam scores are higher than lecture only presentation. Furthermore, when speaking individually with students outside of class, they seem to be able to retain the information more completely. I LOVE this book! It allows both the students and I to be creative in the approach to the material which enhances the classroom environment for all of us."
