Synopsis
Compton (1919-2002), Galaway (U. of Manitoba) and Cournoyer's (Indiana U.) textbook on generalist social work practice is organized around a framework of three key concepts—ecosystems, social work as a problem-solving process, and client-and-worker partnership. In the newest edition, the authors elaborate on the philosophical and scientific bases for their framework, incorporate biological information and additional content on cultural competence, explore the relevance of evidence-based practice, and establish solution seeking as a fundamental aspect of the problem-solving processes.
