Title: Relational theory for social work
Subtitle: a new paradigm for practice
Description: "Relational Theory for Social Work Practice introduces social workers to the burgeoning feminist scholarship on relational theories and the practical application of these theories with diverse populations. It emphasizes the practical application of the basic relational concepts in a readable and comprehensive way, developing an approach to practice that is useful for both male and female social workers and clients." "This work builds explicitly on the professional foundation of social work: mission, theory, practice skills, ethics, and values. Full case studies viewed through a feminist lens are integrated throughout the book. Helpful pedagogical features include a list of best practices for the social worker and a relational questionnaire. It will be of interest to students, researchers, and social work professionals."--Jacket.
