This best-selling text, now in its Tenth Edition, continues to give students a thorough introduction to the field of social work, with unique attention paid toward the diverse groups with whom social workers provide services, including children, older adults, disabled persons, and members of minority racial and ethnic groups. New to this Edition: An informative and powerful chapter on social work practice with Muslims in America speaks to the aftermath of September 11, 2001. Newly updated statistics that reflect the 2000 Census. Totally revised chapters on social work in rural areas and social work with women. New chapter on social work practice and African Americans. I can always rely on the currency of data and information in the Morales and Sheafor text. Having frequent updated editions of the text makes it an attractive text selection. Social Work is an area that is constantly changing and evolving and it is very important to have a text that presents current data and information. Carol J.
