Working with Men: Handbook for Probation and Social Work Staff - Softcover

Reseña del editor

This work presents examples of how masculinity conditions behaviour in men and how probation and social work staff can respond more effectively when confronted by men who display difficult or aggressive behaviour. It shows, in an accessible and first-hand manner, how "it is at least as important to deal with these offenders as men, as it is to deal with these men as offenders." This book is intended to be of interest to: managers and staff in the Probation Service; social workers working with offenders, drug abusers, alcohol dependents and sex offenders; people in the voluntary sector who work with similar groups; probation and social work students; counsellors; therapists; and criminal justice professionals.
