Community Work: Fourth Edition (BASW Practical Social Work)

In the fourth edition of this book Alan Twelvetrees has brought thoroughly up to date his international best seller Community Work. He describes both theory and practice in a highly readable and honest way, drawing on his own professional experience and mistakes and addressing the needs of community workers at field level, of managers, and of students.

The section on specialist community work has been expanded and updated, while the last chapter, again drawing on practice, presents a well worked out case for placing community work at the center of neighborhood renewal, and is a "must" for urban and rural regeneration professionals.
