Throughout its history, social work has been seeking a means to
state its purposes and methodology as a unity that transcends the
purposes and methodology applicable in particular fields of
practice, or sanctioned by particular legislation, or practised by
a particular kind of worker. Recent changes in society,
developments in social work practice, new additions to the
knowledge base of social work and current reorganisation of the
social services had led to an intensified interest in this
‘integrated’ approach. Originally published in 1977,
Integrating Social Work Methods introduces the reader to the main
developments in the conceptualisation of a unitary method. It
clarifies what it is that is being unified, identifies issues
involved in the attempt to unify, and discusses their implications
for social work practice and training. As such it represented the
first substantial British text in the field, and was widely
welcomed by social work practitioners, administrators and educators
at the time.
