The fourth edition of Segal, Gerdes, and Steiner's "An Introduction To The Profession Of Social Work" provides a balanced introduction to the social work profession and helps students to understand the role that the profession plays in the social welfare system. The authors' supportive tone and experiential approach inspires interest in and enthusiasm toward future careers in social work. The book is designed to encourage both knowledge building and self-exploration - skills that are essential in developing good social work practice. Part of the "Brooks/Cole Empowerment Series", the fourth edition is completely up to date and thoroughly integrates the core competencies and recommended practice behaviors outlined in the 2008 Educational Policy and Accreditation Standards (EPAS) set by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE).
