Book excerpt: Radical Casework represents a major innovation in the social work field. It bridges the seemingly unbridgeable gap between the rhetoric of social analysis and the day-to-day practice of the social worker. Written in a clear, direct style, Radical Casework illustrates, step by step, how broad theoretical analysis and specific skills can be linked in each phase of the casework process. Drawing on socialist feminist analysis, this radical theory for practice encourages practising social caseworkers and students alike to develop their own practice in a radical way across a variety of settings. Radical Casework also provides extensive descriptions of practice strategies and case illustrations. Radical Casework brings traditional casework into the 1990s.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Transforming Social Work Practice shows that postmodern theory offers new strategies for social workers concerned with political action and social justice. It explores ways of developing practice frameworks, paradigms and principles which take advantage of the perspectives offered by postmodern theory without totally abandoning the values of modernity and the Enlightenment project of human emancipation. Case studies demonstrate how these perspectives can be applied to practice.

Book excerpt: Social work is a human profession founded on social justice. It is difficult however to negotiate this in the constantly-changing context of the twenty-first century. Now in it's Second Edition, this book considers the critical tradition of social work and updates it with postmodern thinking. Jan Fook draws on critical reflection to help social workers deliver flexible, responsible and responsive practice and to celebrate the ageless ideals of the profession. Jan Fook draws on her own experiences to relate theoretical ideas to real life. Summaries, exercises and further reading are also included in each chapter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1970s, social work in Britain was in crisis. A process of self-searching had begun, stimulated by changes in the organization of social services departments, by the growth of the radical movement in social work, and by the emergence of new techniques in social work. All this might have seemed a confusing and depressing prospect, but Professor Howard Jones, the editor of this collection of essays, originally published in 1975, felt on the contrary that this new situation in social work presented an opportunity for a potentially rewarding debate. He believed that the old unsatisfactory mould had been broken, and that it was now possible for the first time for many years to look at the basic issues in social work without preconceptions. The contributors to this book were all actively involved in the teaching and practice of social work at the time, and they came together to initiate a debate on the leading issues of the day. They were all concerned to find a right course for social work in this crucial period, and among the topics they cover are social work training, social workers and political action, community participation, and making use of research.
