Description:
"Michael Sheppard argues that social exclusion lies at the heart of our understanding of social work, providing the context for its enduring themes. The book offers an original contribution to the understanding of social work, and includes a reappraisal of some fundamental aspects of the profession and its practice. He explores a number of key aspects of social work including social work values and knowledge, empowerment, need, authority and choice, judgement and decision making, evidence-based practice and reflective practice, showing how they reflect an underlying concern with social exclusion."--Jacket.
