Review
"This text is an exciting and refreshing way to present the material. Classroom discussion is lively and I have noticed that exam scores are higher than lecture only presentation. Furthermore, when speaking individually with students outside of class, they seem to be able to retain the information more completely. I LOVE this book! It allows both the students and I to be creative in the approach to the material which enhances the classroom environment for all of us."

"The key strengths of this text are its comprehensive coverage of social work as a profession, social work program and policies, and the integration of critical thinking, diversity, cultural competence, and values and ethics throughout the chapters...I especially appreciate the concept of globalization infused throughout the chapters."
