Reviews
"A logical and informative guide...This book will assist anyone wishing to begin, or those who already have experience of, supporting older people." Community Care "Designed as a guide to social work practice with older people in various settings, the book has a strong practical emphasis but also examines theoretical perspectives, with insights from sociology and psychology integrated throughout. It also discusses policy guidelines and organizational standards." Booknews "This is a convincing and well-written text exploring complex ideas in a coherent and logical way, without simplification. The use of case studies and the linking of theory to research at every stage provides valuable contexts for the application of diverse ideas and constructs. I would certainly use this book as a key text in the study of social work with older adults, and it is a welcome addition to the development of theoretical understanding more broadly." Jane Heyes, University of Central Lancashire "This book provides a comprehensive and thorough coverage of the topic. The emphasis on human rights provides a useful and necessary framework on which all practice and interventions with older people should be based. The summaries, key lessons and further reading will be invaluable to students and practitioners alike." Bridget Penhale, University of Sheffield "Eminently accessible in terms of structure, style and content, the book addresses core areas, such as assessment and care planning, but also engages in more original discussion of work with older people within family and community contexts. Above all, it conveys the important message that social work with older people is a highly skilled, challenging and rewarding area of practice." Denise Tanner, University of Birmingham
