"... the real potential of this book is in bridging the gap between education and qualified practice. Social work educators, students and those employing newly qualified social workers
should read this and discuss the transition from student to professional, as well as ensuring academic debate remains central to practice"
Rob Fountain, Community Care
The central focus of this book is on the early professional development needs of social workers. It has been compiled by editors with extensive experience of social work practice, education and research. The collection examines the radical changes that have taken place in social work over the last decade within the wider context of welfare policy and practice change within the United Kingdom.
The editors have brought together a broad range of experts to provide a contemporary perspective on a wide spectrum of social work issues, taking account of legal and policy differences between England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Each country within the UK faces similar challenges and there is much learning to be gleaned from exploring the range of social work interventions that have been developed and applied in different parts of the United Kingdom in recent years.
