Becoming an Effective Policy Advocate: From Policy Practice to Social Justice
Each revision seems to become more animated. I’m excited to see the text gain strength in the use of Internet resources. I also look forward to reviewing the instructor’s manual when it is revised as the last edition was the best instructor’s manual I have ever used."This book is one of the most valuable resources that policy teachers have available. It goes beyond the competing texts. The intellectual development is really impressive. The students like it because they can actually see what policy practice (often a murky concept to them) means. There are substantial improvements in the new edition. The new policy-practice sub-methods (electoral and troubleshooting) are an improvement in the text and the intellectual underpinnings of the model. This is an elegant book..."Jansson’s Fourth Edition of BECOMING AN EFFECTIVE POLICY ADVOCATE is a significant step forward for an already excellent book. The field of social work and the lives of clients would be much improved if every social work student and social worker were required to learn and apply what is in this book.
