Publisher Description: Social Work Theory and Practice helps readers understand how theory impacts and informs social work practice across a range of contexts and different service user groups. This helpful resource begins by briefly setting the context, introducing readers to the importance of social work theory and its development over the years, before moving on to examine different types of theory across 17 tightly structured chapters. These chapters cover a range of psychological theories, sociological theories, ethics and moral philosophies, political theories and ideologies, and organizational theories. |
