Theoretical Perspectives for Direct Social Work Practice: A Generalist-Eclectic Approach

The major focus of this second edition is the same: to provide an overview of theories, models, and therapies for direct social work practice, including systems theory, attachment theory, cognitive-behavioral theory, narrative therapy, solution-focused therapy, the crisis intervention model, and many more. However, this popular textbook goes beyond a mere survey of such theories. It also provides a framework for integrating the use of each theory with central social work principles and values, as well as with the artistic elements of practice.Lehman, Peter is the author of 'Theoretical Perspectives for Direct Social Work Practice: A Generalist-Eclectic Approach', published 2007 under ISBN 9780826102867 and ISBN 0826102867.
