Perspectives in Social Work was originally published in 1977 and
provides a text for social workers in training to use. The book
argues for a more philosophical approach to both understanding and
doing social work and seeks to establish simple and basic elements
in social work, asking questions such as: what should a social
worker be able to do? What should a social worker know and believe?
Does social work actually work? In answering these questions the
book offers a wide ranging and critical review of literature of the
time and looks at social work as a method of altruism. This book is
still topical today and acts as a useful document on the subject of
social work both through the discussions within, and through the
lens of modern change. It will be of particular interest to those
studying the history and changes in social work.
