Since devolution in 1999, social policy within Scotland has
burgeoned. The Scottish Parliament has a range of powers in
relation to key policy areas including social work, education,
health, child care, child protection, law and home affairs, and
housing. These powers and the existence of a distinct legal
tradition in Scotland means that social work practice has developed
a distinctive style, attuned to the particular needs of Scotland.
Scottish distinctiveness however, has rarely been properly
represented in textbooks on either social policy or social work.
This innovative text offers comprehensive coverage of the
discipline of social policy and its central relevance to social
work, social care and related practice in Scotland. Designed to
complement teaching and study associated with the new Honours
degree in Social Work (Scottish Executive 2003), it fills a notable
gap in the literature on this subject and will be essential reading
for students, professionals and academics within a variety of
health and social care occupations.
