Originally published in 1991, this title is a valuable social work
text which demonstrated how to apply family system concepts to
clinical situations encountered in work with inner-city populations
at the time. Unlike traditional theories in clinical social work
which were oriented toward the individual, this fascinating book
offers a paradigm for social work that encompasses the client, his
or her immediate and extended family, the community, the
government, and the social worker. The family systems concepts in
this refreshing volume are illustrated by case examples addressing
the specific issues of AIDS and drug abuse, homelessness, foster
care, wife abuse, care of those with intellectual disabilities, and
adoption issues. Social workers and social work students can still
gain perspective from these insightful chapters and will discover
that it is not pathological people that make difficult populations,
but difficult life situations that breed pathology.
