Book excerpt: Psychology is an important part of the social work syllabus, usually studied as a separate module in the first year, but also integrated within the academic curriculum. This fully updated edition will help students understand the concepts of psychology and apply them to their own practice. It shows that, for social workers, it is important for psychology to be studied in the contexts of social care, as it offers potential explanations of complex aspects of human behaviour and development. An overview of the key psychological approaches is given and the author demonstrates how these can be applied to social work practice.

Book excerpt: Psychology provides an essential backdrop to social work practice but there remain few sources that summarise its theories and findings accessibly for social work students and busy professionals. Applied Psychology for Social Workers is designed specifically to fulfil this need. Thoroughly revised and updated to take account of the latest research in psychology as well as recent innovations in social work education and practice, this third edition of a classic text provides an informative yet practical explanation of the intrinsic link between psychology, social work theory and practice. It draws upon research underpinning our understanding of human growth and development, communication, personality, emotions and behaviour to demonstrate how key theories and evidence can be applied to professional practice in a variety of contexts and settings. Compact, engaging and clear, the book can be read from cover to cover or used as an ongoing point of reference. Either way, it will prove a vital and practical resource for deepening readers' understanding of the challenges they face, either in the present or future. Book jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Object Relations and Self Psychology are two leading schools of psychological thought discussed in social work classrooms and applied by practitioners to a variety of social work populations. Yet both groups have lacked a basic manual for teaching and reference -- until now. For them, Dr. Eda G. Goldstein's book fills a void on two fronts: Part I provides a readable, systematic, and comprehensive review of object relations and self psychology, while Part II gives readers a friendly, step-by-step description and illustration of basic treatment techniques. For educators, this textbook offers a learned and accessible discussion of the major concepts and terminology, treatment principles, and the relationship of object relations and self psychology to classic Freudian theory. Practitioners find within these pages treatment guidelines for such varied problems as illness and disability, the loss of a significant other, and such special problems as substance abuse, child maltreatment, and couple and family disruptions. In a single volume, Dr. Goldstein has met the complex challenges of education and clinical practice.
