Praise for the previous edition
"An extraordinary and important book. Its approach to
evidence-based practice (EBP) is very sound, realistic, and
generous to the complexities of everyday practice. Reading and
using this book is a must."
--Haluk Soydan, PhD, School of Social Work, University of Southern
California
"This book has the potential to change practice in the helping
professions. Rather than focusing on how to conduct research,
"Practitioner's Guide to Using Research for Evidence-Based
Practice" instead shows readers how to understand the
literature.... The] generous use of humor and the inclusion of
simple, practice-relevant examples make this book a pleasure to
read."
--Aron Shlonsky, PhD, Faculty of Social Work, University of
Toronto
"I particularly like the integration of research methods and
EBP; this is the book's major innovation in my mind as it allows
readers to see the connections between research and practice. The
book] also succeeds by taking very complex EBP principles and
explaining them in practical terms."
--Jeffrey M. Jenson, PhD, Graduate School of Social Work,
University of Denver
