About this product

Product Information

The authors have extensively updated and expanded this classic text, the first to apply the ecological approach to practice. They have adopted a "life course" model of human development, which incorporates an understanding of the unique experience of each individual in a historical, societal, and cultural context. The new edition also provides practitioners with an innovative schema for assessment and intervention with respect to difficult life transitions and traumatic events, environmental pressures, and dysfunctional interpersonal processes. Practice illustrations reflect today's major social issues, including AIDS, homelessness, and violence.
