by Alfred Kadushin

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

For twenty-five years, The Social Work Interview has been the textbook of choice in social work and other human service courses, as well as an essential professional resource for practitioners. This new edition, the first in seven years, is thoroughly updated-revised, expanded, and reorganized for more thorough coverage and for more effective teaching and learning.

Review:

"Adds practical, research based guidelines for interviewing involuntary adults and sexually abused children useful to both the student and the graduate practitioner." Ronald H. Rooney, University of Minnesota

Review:

"This has always been my text of choice and this new edition solidifies my belief that it is by far the best and most thorough social work oriented interviewing text available... I am especially impressed by the extended information on listening, non-verbal communication, transitions, the use of interpreters, interpreting the deaf, and interviewing involuntary clients." John F. Longres, author of Human Behavior and the Social Environment

Review:

"The finest, most comprehensive text on the subject. The 4th edition, thoroughly updated and expanded, uses a phase approach to the interview process which is unmatched by any current text." Ronald W. Toseland, author of An Introduction to Group Work Practice
