Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The Science of Public Welfare' offers a comprehensive examination of the evolving systems of social support and community care in the early twentieth century. Author Robert W. Kelso provides a systematic analysis of the legal, administrative, and historical foundations of public relief efforts. The work explores the critical intersection between the state's duty to its citizens and the practical methods employed to address poverty, illness, and social dependency.Through a detailed exploration of social legislation and the organizational structures of public departments, the book traces the transition from archaic poor laws to a more scientific and professionalized approach to social service. Kelso delves into topics such as the treatment of the mentally ill, the care of neglected children, and the management of penal institutions, framing these issues within a broader context of public health and societal progress. As a significant contribution to the field of social science, 'The Science of Public Welfare' remains a vital resource for understanding the historical development of social policy and the philosophical underpinnings of modern welfare systems.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
