| Abstract
|
:
|
This book provides an up-to-date and authoritative overview of the development of social work with older people in the UK. The coherent structure draws together the key themes involved in working with older people, and clearly demonstrates how to translate these into real-life practice. The book establishes an understanding of the policy context within which social work takes place, with particular attention to key topics such as inter-professional collaboration and ethics. It goes beyond other textbooks by challenging the restricted nature of social work practice, and adopting a positive view.
