Description: "Until now there has been no text about human biology that is designed specifically for social work students and practitioners. This book was written and published to fill that gap. Standard biology texts explain the science, but fall short of applying biology to social work. This book attempts to do both - to cover the basics of human biology and to show why and how it is important to those who are pursuing social work careers."--BOOK JACKET.
