Recenzii

The authors make a compelling case for the important role that developmental psychology should play in social work if its practitioners are to work well with individual children, adolescents and their parents. The range of theories offered, the examples provided and the guides to further reading studded throughout the text provide excellent support for the argument that relationship-based practices remain the bedrock of sound social work.
This book is designed to help social workers and social work students use knowledge of psychological principles to inform practice with children and families . book is written from the perspective of social work in the UK, although it is largely applicable anywhere. Summing Up: Recommended. Undergraduates.
