Publisher's Synopsis

Very often research texts for social work students are dry, boring, and hard to relate to. Not this book. Nor do authors Judy L. Krysik and Jerry Finn shy away from teaching research skills that are actually interesting and useful to students interested in real-life social work practice. See the chapter on writing in this book. Also, the brand new chapter on qualitative methods. Go to www.routledgesw.com/research to learn more. Three unique cases teach students how to apply research issues and skills to a variety of different levels of social work intervention, and clients.
