Description
This comprehensive textbook explains and analyses key theories in social work practice, providing an accessible introduction to psychosocial development. It covers topics such as bereavement, attachment, and learning, and how these relate to everyday social work practice.
The book follows a life cycle framework, exploring the intersection of psychological and social development throughout the lifespan. With 12 extended case studies, you can apply theoretical concepts to real-life scenarios and develop your skills in linking theory to practice.
Written by Chris Beckett, a social work academic and novelist, and Hilary Taylor, a psychotherapist and former social work academic, this book is an invaluable resource for students studying careers in the helping professions, including nurses, social workers, occupational therapists, teachers, and counsellors. An online case study resource supports your learning.
