Summary
This book introduces students, faculty, and practitioners to different ways of mastering the complex, yet key elements of successful practice. It refocuses the attention from teaching about practice to concentrating on how to support the development of field instructors, students, and practice teachers in understanding that their personal and professional growth is the instrument for the delivery of “good” or “bad” social work practice.
