Synopsis

What Is Social Case Work? An Introductory Description (1922) is a book written by Mary Ellen Richmond that provides a comprehensive overview of the field of social case work. The book is intended as an introductory guide for students and practitioners of social work, and covers a wide range of topics related to the field, including the history and development of social case work, its principles and methods, and the role of the social worker in helping individuals and families in need.Richmond begins by defining social case work and explaining its purpose, which is to help individuals and families overcome problems and challenges that prevent them from achieving their full potential. She then discusses the various factors that contribute to social problems, such as poverty, illness, and social injustice, and explains how social case workers can address these issues through a combination of counseling, advocacy, and community organizing.Throughout the book, Richmond emphasizes the importance of building strong relationships with clients and communities, and stresses the need for social workers to be empathetic, non-judgmental, and culturally sensitive. She also explores the ethical considerations involved in social case work, such as confidentiality and the boundaries of the client-worker relationship.Overall, What Is Social Case Work? An Introductory Description (1922) is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the field of social work, providing a clear and accessible introduction to the principles and practices of social case work.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Almost as soon as human beings discovered that their relations to one another had ceased to be primitive and simple, they must have found among their fellows a few who had a special gift for smoothing out the tangles in such relations; they must have sought, however informally, the aid of these straighteners, asS amuel Butler calls them.
