Críticas

"I would describe this book to a colleague by emphasizing what I see are the book's essential qualities: (It) covers brief methods and fits with today's managed care perspective; (it) addresses contextual issues such as ethnic families, gay clients, and gender issues; (it) addresses the unique concerns of social work; and (it) is readable and understandable for students. I would adopt this book for our family-centered social work practice course."
