'The second edition of this handbook, which has been substantially updated to bring it into line with the latest developments in social work, provides an essential resource for social work educators, practitioners and students. The text would be useful to use in preparing students for social work contact, as well as supporting them in their practice learning opportunities. It is also a useful reference volume for practitioners who will be supporting students as a work base supervisor, practice teacher, and practice assessor, as it covers the traditional social work knowledge base. There are some excellent chapters from a range of well known and well respected professionals from research, policy making and practice.'
- Social Policy and Social Work Subject Centre (SWAP)
'The book is well structured and each chapter is self-contained and carefully written, considering areas relevant for practice today. relevant for a wide audience of both occupational therapy practitioners and students.'
- British Journal of Occupational Therapy
'Overall this is a comprehensive, up-to-date and well referenced resource which should be on the bookshelves of all social work educationalists and, indeed, of all social workers.'
