About This Book
This book traces the origins and development of social work as we now know it. Providing an ambitious synthesis of historical and international material, it explores the different faces of social work, whether defined by social policy developments, professionalization, changes in client group, or shifts in practice orientation. This is a unique book undertaken by an author with a strong international reputation and, as such, it promises to be a landmark for years to come in the social work literature.

Information
■
Knowledge
and
research
(Chapter
9).
What
knowledge
professions
use
and
how
it
is
developed
is
important
for
how
they
work.
■
Education
for
the
profession
(Chapter
10).
Education
is
a
crucial
element
in
understanding
any
distinctive
occupa-
tional
group.
Each
chapter
focuses
in
turn
on
each
of
these
different
components
in
the
historical
formation
of
social
work,
with
a
final
chapter
to
draw
together
some
overall
points
to
help
social
workers
to
think
about
the
continuities
and
changes
they
exper-
ience.
I
have
drawn
some
connections
between
the
chapters,
but
there
are
other
links
to
find.
In
doing
so,
you
will
be
engaging
in
the
process
of
understanding
social
works
as
histor-
ical
entities
and
their
development
within
wider
social
contexts.
There
will
be
much
more
to
do,
since
a
short
book
such
as
this
can
only
introduce
in
outline
some
of
the
important
trends
and
connections.
But
I
hope
it
will
stimulate
you
to
go
into
the
detail,
which
will
allow
histories
of
social
work
to
be
developed
and
reconstructed
to
offer
new
interpretations
and
understand-
ings
in
the
future.
