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.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

Holinshed's Chronicles, famous as the source for the stories in
many Shakespeare's plays, such as King Lear and Cymbeline, were
written in the sixteenth century as a collaborative effort, but
consistently sustain a lively and highly readable style. A wide
variety of sources were used, and carefully noted, but with little
critical examination. This volume contains the first four books of
the Historie of England, from the time of the Flood to the end of
Roman rule and includes much that is the stuff of legend. For ease
of reading, it has been typeset in a modern font, but all the
original spellings and marginal notes have been preserved.
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.

1-800-555-0606 How lucky do you feel? So reads the business card
from LIMBUS, INC., a shadowy employment agency that operates at the
edge of the normal world. LIMBUS's employees are just as suspicious
and ephemeral as the motives of the company, if indeed it could be
called a company in the ordinary sense of the word. In this
shared-world anthology, five heavy hitters from the dark worlds of
horror, fantasy, and scifi pool their warped takes on the shadow
organization that offers employment of the most unusual kind to
those on the fringes of society. One thing's for sure - you'll
never think the same way again about the fine print on your next
employment application
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.
