Social Work Theories in Context | Healy, Karen

This best-selling text-book explores contemporary social work theories using an integrated and flexible framework to link context, theory, and practice approaches. It will act as a guide to social work theory across a range of organisational contexts, showing social work as a diverse activity that is shaped by professional purpose, public policy, and practice locations. Aimed at undergraduate and postgraduate students on qualifying professional programmes, this edition has been updated with theories that reflect modern contexts such as anti-racial, feminist and post-humanist social work.
