Inhaltsangabe

Using case illustrations, evidence-based guidance, and supported with extensive references, this valuable learning resource will help students, practitioners, managers, and trainers to provide holistic support and effective services. "A refreshing read - in places positively inspiring... a welcome addition to the literature on how to engage with families and focus on the areas of concern whilst also maximising the emphasis on change potential and strengths." Martin C. Calder. ".a carefully written, concise book.relating methodologies and skills developed in family therapy to broader applications. Written 'by practitioners for practitioners'.The authors set out to bring together two types of practice - that geared to social inequalities and that geared to therapy - noting that each practice type has historically marginalised the other's discourse. It acknowledges similarities, but it does not seek conceptual merger or closure. Along the way, the conversation bears considerable fruit." Robert Constable, European Journal of Social Work, Oct. 2007
