Social Work and Child Abuse Paperback / softback
by D.M. Cooper, David Ball
Part of the Practical Social Work Series series
Paperback / softback
Description
Well-publicised cases of child abuse have brought heavy media criticism of the social work role in prevention and child protection.
This book attempts to bring a sense of perspective to allay the anxieties and fears felt by many social workers.
The authors resist the idea that child abuse is a special 'disease' and develop a broad based strategy encompassing both individual therapy and environmental approaches. '...Cooper and Ball's short introduction to child abuse in the Practical Social Work Series is a remarkable achievement in that it provides local authority social workers and general social work students with a concise overview of issues related to working in child abuse.' Issues in Social Work Education.
