Language of Social Casework

More about the book

Focusing on the often-overlooked role of language in social work, this book critiques how social workers and their critics perceive the profession. It argues that this neglect stems from limited views on the nature of social work, highlighting the need for a deeper understanding of communication's impact on practice. Originally published in 1968, it challenges professionals to reevaluate their approach to language within the context of casework.
