'This book will definitely challenge practitioners and educators in Australia who have yet to incorporate, to any great extent, research with service users in the development of practice models. While those wanting to learn about the model will benefit from the sections of the book on the rationale behind this approach and how it can be applied,trainers and practitioners will also benefit from the very practical and reflective approach of the book's structure. The Task-Centred approach has been around a long time and this book gives it new life as it argues the relevance of this model for addressing the current personal and social issues facing us all.'- Karen Heycox, Senior Lecturer, University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia'I strongly recommend this book to students, educators and practitioners. This text is user-friendly and interactive enabling the reader to explore the material presented from a number of perspectives. What I like about the book is the clarity with which the the task-centred approach is presented and the way in which the reader is able to incoporate their own theoretical and practice perspectives into the suggestions presented. Careful consideration has been given to the presentation of the material and the examples used. I like the moments for critical reflection and the multiple voices that are represented in these reflections. The depth of experience of the authors is evident in all aspects of the text. I want to also acknowledge the publishers on the presentation, graphics and format of the book which strongly align with the requirements of the text. I will be recommending this book for use with students and also as an important reference guide for practitioners and practice supervisors.' - Professor Robyn Munford, Professor of Social Work, Massey University, New Zealand 'The authors are experienced teachers,trainers, researchers and practitioners, and their capacity to intergrate different kinds of experience clearly emerge, particularly through the many practice illustrations and the breadth of theory and research used to evidence their points.'- Imogen Taylor Professor of Social Work and Social Care, University of Sussex....'This book will be very useful for teachers and trainers, students and practitioners.'- Imogen Taylor Professor of Social Work and Social Care, University of Sussex.....'This is an immpresive book'- Imogen Taylor Professor of Social Work and Social Care, University of Sussex
