First published in 1999, this second edition of Values in Social
Work has been extensively revised from the first edition,
incorporating new case study material and extended areas of
analysis. Values in Social Work encourages the reader to critically
examine social work values as they relate to the processes whereby
individuals become 'clients', how values work in practice, and the
nature of social work practice in society. Michael Horne begins by
describing and critically examining the central social work values
of respect for persons and self-determination. He goes on to
illustrate and examine what happens to these values in social work
practice, describing and analysing actual cases based on interviews
with social workers. The author concludes with a theoretical
framework that seeks to critically understand the nature of social
work values in the context of the function and nature of social
work in society. Thus, Values in Social Work takes the subject of
values, often treated in an abstract and theoretical way, firmly
into the arena of contemporary social work practice. As such the
book is a valuable resource to social workers, social work students
and the reader interested in a values based exploration of social
work.
