Solution-based casework is an approach to assessment, case planning, and case management that combines what we know from clinical social work with what we value about sound social work practice. It is grounded in family-centered social work and draws from clinical approaches within social work and mental health. By integrating problem- and solution-focused approaches that form the clinical and social work traditions, treatment partnerships are more easily formed between family, caseworker, and service provider.

Solution-Based Casework is a skill-based, practice-oriented text that provides the specific guidance that students and new practitioners need in order to make sense quickly of the complex tasks of assessment and case planning in child welfare. The book flows out of a long practice experience, and was developed in consultation with workers and supervisors who were attempting to remedy problems viewed as contributing to recurrent abuse and neglect. It seeks to end adversarial relationships in casework and advocates case plans based on specific outcome skills rather than on those written with vague outcome goals measuring attendance in counseling. It serves as a common conceptual framework for integrating disparate segments of a response network, thereby allowing all providers in a therapeutic system to work toward common goals.

The text is divided into three sections. In Section I the conceptual history and theoretical foundations of solution-based casework are presented so that the reader can place this approach to casework within the ongoing professional conversation about what constitutes sound practice. Section II addresses issues of assessment and case planning. Section III focuses on case management issues and how treatment team members experience a solution-based casework approach.

Magic is not too strong a term for the appeal of this unique group of plants, the Mesembs. Radiant in flower and highly diverse in form and stature, this group includes plants as small as wheat grains or as big as a rhinoceros. Their fruits are as complex as any in the floral kingdom or as simple as saltshakers. Mesembs have captured the imagination of botanists, horticulturalists and travellers for many centuries. This title is a must for anyone who want to experience the magic of mesembs.

From his early career as an art critic during the sixties to his art historical writings of recent decades, Michael Fried has remained one of the most controversial and fascinating art writers of the late twentieth-century. The theoretical and historical aftereffects of Fried's art criticism continue to be played out in contemporary art and criticism, while his art historical studies impinge on many of the most pressing recent debates in art history and theory. This collection brings together for the first time a range of scholarly responses to Fried's art criticism, art history, and poetry. It illuminates Fried's distinguished contribution to the study of art, while taking his work in exciting new directions. This book will be of significant interest to art historians, those engaged in contemporary art and criticism, as well as critical and visual theory. First published in 2000, it remains the only anthology devoted to analysis of the work of this prodigious scholar.

"Fried's effect on art history and art criticism has been immense. But it is still incompletely acknowledged. The present anthology will decisively raise the stakes and establish a new standard of seriousness in discussion of Fried's work." -T. J. Clark

In addition to the volume editors Jill Beaulieu, Mary Roberts, and Toni Ross, the contributors include Keith Broadfoot, Rex Butler, Hans-Jost Frey, Steven Z. Levine, Stephen Melville, James Meyer, K. Malcolm Richards, and Isabelle Loring Wallace.

This volume brings together a range of miscellaneous short texts by Voltaire, mostly undated and principally manuscript fragments. From thoughts on the souls of animals, to how he organised his papers to a joke proxy granting unlimited powers to act on his behalf, these scraps shed light on Voltaire's working methods and on the possible subjects of texts that he never published. Most notably, it contains a supplement adding nineteen fragments to the edition of Voltaire's Notebooks (OCV, vol.81-82). Contributors: David Adams, Andrew Brown, Marie-Helene Cotoni, Nicholas Cronk, Jean Dagen, Stephanie Gehanne Gavoty, Myrtille Mericam-Bourdet, Christiane Mervaud, Gillian Pink, John Renwick, Gerhardt Stenger, David Williams.

The volume can be used as a stand-alone volume, or as a companion volume to Juta's Complete Textbook of Medical Surgical Nursing. Juta's Introduction to Paediatric Surgical Nursing is easy to read and content can be integrated into everyday activities in the paediatric surgical ward. Chapter features include: - Clear illustrations that show anatomical anomalies - Medico-legal and ethical considerations for conditions - 'Clinical alert', 'Nursing alert' and 'Practice alert' and 'Information' boxes that highlight important information - Pre- and post-operative care plans - Learner activities at the end of each chapter Juta's Introduction to Paediatric Surgical Nursing meets the requirements of the current nursing programmes and the proposed updates and is suitable as a prescribed textbook for learners registered in these programmes: Auxiliary nurse, Staff nurse and Professional nurse. It is also recommended as a reference for clinical nurse practitioners.

This complement to the "Corpus des notes marginales series" reproduces marginalia by Voltaire found in works outside of his personal library in both printed books and manuscripts. It occupies a unique place within the series as some of the texts included therein were annotated by Voltaire not for his own use but for friends, acquaintances and correspondents. The volume therefore offers a rare glimpse at marginalia whose chief purpose was to impress a certain image of Voltaire himself upon the recipients of the annotated works. A retrospective introduction to the "Corpus des notes marginales de Voltaire" series provides a fascinating portrait of Voltaire as a reader. Contributors: Samuel Bailey, Jean Dagen, Ethel Groffier, John R. Iverson, Edouard Langille, Christiane Mervaud, Christophe Paillard, Jean-Alexandre Perras, Gillian Pink, John Renwick, Alain Sandrier, Gerhardt Stenger, Gemma Tidman, David Williams, Irina Zaitseva.

Au cours des derniers mois de la vie, Voltaire se consacre a un projet de grande envergure, ses "Dialogues d'Evhemere", qui font la synthese de sa pensee en matiere de religion et de philosophie. L'entree triomphale a Paris sera par la suite l'occasion de retrouvailles avec l'Academie francaise, pour laquelle Voltaire projette un nouveau dictionnaire de langue francaise, ouvrage qui ne verra malheureusement pas le jour. Les Comediens-Francais de meme recoivent sa derniere esquisse de tragedie, "Agathocle". Ce volume regroupe egalement de nombreux courts textes de cette periode, y compris le poeme "Les Adieux a la vie".

Ce volume donne un bon apercu des combats qui occupent Voltaire au debut des annees 1770: qu'il s'agisse de se battre pour la survivance du theatre francais issu du Grand Siecle ("Les Pelopides"), de defendre son Dieu contre les materialistes radicaux ("Reponse au Systeme de la nature", "Lettres de Memmius a Ciceron"), de denoncer l'asservissement des mainmortables de Franche-Comte ("Au roi en son conseil", "Nouvelle requete"), ou encore de fustiger les travers de son epoque et l'obscurantisme de l'Eglise ("Les Deux Siecles", "Le Pere Nicodeme"), Voltaire continue a monter au creneau a 75 ans passes pour defendre ses convictions.

In 1766, while Voltaire was heavily involved in the Sirven case, he was also busy defending his own reputation. His "Lettre pastorale a Monsieur l'archeveque d'Auch" and "Satire contre Monsieur Lefranc de Pompignan" perpetuated feuds against old enemies, while his "Petit Commentaire" called for greater tolerance for the philosophes in general. A biography of Henri IV that made no reference to Voltaire's work as a historian impelled him to write the scathing "Le President de Thou justifie". An unauthorised, maliciously edited collection of his letters, which was potentially damaging to the Sirven campaign, prompted the "Appel au public contre un recueil de pretendues lettres". But Voltaire reserved his harshest treatment for Rousseau and the Genevan pastor Jacob Vernet. The "Lettre au docteur Jean-Jacques Pansophe", a litany of apparent contradictions in Rousseau's works, appeared in England during Rousseau's stay there. It was followed by the "Lettre de Monsieur de Voltaire a Monsieur Hume", giving Voltaire's account of Rousseau's life, and by "Notes" on that letter. Vernet was ridiculed in the "Lettre curieuse de Monsieur Robert Covelle" and the "Eloge de l'hypocrisie". The shorter verse presents a more affable side to Voltaire as he flatters nobles, writers and younger women.

First Published in 1998. This is Volume IV in the Sociology of Behaviour and Psychology series. In the preparation of this book two aspects of the work of the Institute of Human Relations are illustrated. The first is that of co-operative research. It has been co-operative not only in the that sense that five authors amid three collaborators have contributed to it, but more. fundamentally, they have pooled their ideas and materials, and criticisms. Also, the procedure of inquiry which is well known but seldom used in the social sciences has also been used. It begins with a problem or a group of problems that are real in the experiences of daily life, then after definition a theory is tested. The problem of aggressive behaviour is here advanced one step' along this road which all* social inquiry that aspires which has consisted partly in a more *systematic- formulation and further elaboration of the Frustration-Aggression hypothesis which had already-- been stated by*Freud and others
