Here is a timely, insightful book that greatly increases the
effectiveness of human service professionals and the organizations
in which they function. Organization, Policy, and Practice in the
Human Services is the first such text to bring together in a
systematic fashion the concepts of organizational theory, policy,
and practice in the human services. Offering a basic orientation to
the structure and operations of social service organizations,
Neugeboren addresses society's need for the successful operation of
these complex institutions in our highly organized society. He also
calls for a re-examination of what is meant by "dependency" and
postulates new methods of dealing with the social and personal
problems confronting people in contemporary society. This book is
indispensable for administrators, practitioners, and students.
Practitioners gain instruction in "bureaucratic expertise,"
enabling them to maximize opportunities, limit organizational
constraints, reduce the likelihood of "burnout,'and otherwise
become a "good bureaucrat" instead of an ineffective if
well-intentioned one. Administrators will benefit from a model of
organizational goals, practical guidelines for evaluating the
effectiveness of an organizational structure, and methods for
identifying and remedying the causes of organizational dysfunction.
Neugeboren's practical ideas make a significant contribution in
preparing tomorrow's social workers to deal more effectively with
the world facing each of us. His theoretical insights are grounded
in discussions of actual cases making them easy to apply to any
human service organization.
