Thompson and Thompson step through, in a gentle but informative manner, the broad contexts of social work processes, skills, values and knowledge bases that inform the profession. Like a good mentor, the book both challenges and supports the reader on a journey of continuous learning. Engaging and accessible, Thompson and Thompson prompt critical thinking and awareness about being a social worker in the 21st century. - Dr Janice Pascal, Health and Social Care, Bishop Grosseteste University (UK) This comprehensive compendium of considerations provides a really useful guide for those students preparing for and undertaking social work qualifying education programmes.
