The last decade has seen major growth in research, practice development and new influences on the profession.
These are reflected in this all-new edition of Social Care Work, the leading text for social care work students and practitioners in Ireland.
This volume includes contributions from academics and practitioners across the wide range of social care work settings. Key theoretical and practice areas are presented and debated, drawing on the most recent academic and scientific literature from Ireland and internationally. The twenty-nine chapters are authored by forty-six contributors, resulting in the most comprehensive contemporary analysis of social care work in Ireland.
