Originally published in 1983, this clear-sighted study built an
understanding of what human behaviour meant at the time: an
understanding which can still be of practical use for those who
work with people in their everyday lives today. The various
influences on the individual are carefully examined, with
theoretical approaches from different standpoints considered in
relation to one another, from the development of the personality
and behaviour patterns to the effect of family and social life,
culminating in the picture of a 'whole', responsive person.
Relationships are seen to be important, and this is reflected in
the selection of material. Ford argues that it is the social
worker's role to offer guidance relating to the nature and quality
of an individual's interaction with society, and that this can be
done more effectively if there is a practical understanding of how
this interaction evolves. Examples of social work practice are
given throughout to show how such understandings may be used.
