One of the key challenges of all types of practice and research is
finding a way to measure a given problem. The seminal Measures for
Clinical Practice and Research two-volume set contains hundreds of
the most useful measurement tools-alongside the authors' guidance
on how to select and score them-for use in clinical practice and in
research. Focusing on measures for use with couples, families, and
children, this first volume includes an introduction to the basic
priniciples of measurement, an overview of different types of
measures, and an overview of Rapid Assessment Instruments. The text
also contains descriptions and reviews of each instrument and
information on how they were selected. This book is designed to
serve as the definitive reference volume on assessment measures for
both practice and research in clinical mental health, and Volume 1
is updated with a new preface, new instruments for measuring
children's clinical conditions, several new measures for couples
and families, and six new chapters. These classic Measures for
Clinical Practice and Research compendiums are powerful tools that
clinicians and researchers alike will find to be an invaluable
addition to-or update of-their libraries.

Toward Evidence-Based Practice: Variations on a Theme is an
insightful collection of previously published articles by one of
social work's most controversial figures, Joel Fischer, a long time
advocate of research and research-based practices. In this book,
which includes his groundbreaking 1973 article, "Is casework
effective?" and ending with excerpts of his most recent
"Reflections," Fischer offers insight on the field of social work
and the struggle toward evidence-based practice and empirically
supported interventions.
