Beskrivning

Since its publication more than ten years ago, Social Work Practice has been widely used as a succinct and focused book to prepare human service providers in the key components underpinning direct practice. This second edition builds on the first edition’s success at synthesizing the latest theories and practice models; helping and change processes; empirical findings; and practice skills, and demonstrates how these interlinked dimensions contribute to the EPAS 2015-endorsed model of holistic competence.The second edition of Social Work Practice is updated with new empirical findings and foundational information, while also supplementing the text with the concepts and competencies in EPAS 2015. With an overall theme of holistic competence, it incorporates the significant role of cognitive and affective processes in social workers’ professional practice and discusses ways of developing and maintaining a reflective practice. With useful material on interpersonal communication, cross-cultural practice, and the use of technology in one guide, Marion Bogo lays a general foundation for social work practice and professional development.

Recensioner i media

Bogo has written a second edition to her successful and remarkably insightful book. While there is much new in this second edition, a key feature is the discussion of the notion of holistic competence introduced in the first two chapters that is then linked to the competencies articulated in 2015 EPAS throughout the rest of the book. This state-of-the-art book reflects the synthesis of her many years of practice experience and is informed by extant empirically supported knowledge and its application to social work practice. I strongly recommend this stimulating and well-written book.
