The Creation of Meaning in Clinical Social Work
"This work represents a major advance in the construction of a practice theory for clinical social work....Professor Saari makes a scholarly case for adopting the concept ofmeaningas the central concept in our understanding of the self, identity, and the clinical process. Clinical social workers are fortunate to have someone of Professor Saari's intellectual talents who has taken on the challenge of redrawing the theoretical map on which social work is based."--Joseph Palombo, Dean, Institute for Clinical Social Work, Chicago
