Product Description
Now available in paperback format and thoroughly updated to reflect the latest CSWE ethical standards and current social work literature, this hands-on text offers a practical, user-friendly, and comprehensive introduction to foundation macro practice. Encouraging you to build on their one-on-one (micro) and group (mezzo) communication skills, the authors outline a guided, step-by-step plan for community and organizational change. Two models -- Prepare and Imagine -- form the heart of the book, providing valuable frameworks for effective macro social work practice. A running case study illustrates these models in action. The authors' coverage of such skills as working with the media, using new technological advances, fundraising, grant writing, and working within court settings -- as well as lively vignettes and a wide variety of highlights that include hands-on tips and sample forms -- will further enhance your expertise.

good text book April 30, 2004
3 out of 6 found this review helpful
Excellent text-book. Useful information, well organized, good examples. An easier and more interesting read than some. Includes a (small) section on Procrastination which identifies with me a little too well (in fact, guess what I'm doing right now?). :)
The reason I gave this book 4 stars instead of 5 is just because it is a text book and I was forced to read it. However, I think I'd much rather read this one than something else.
