Rezensionen

'Carole Sutton's books are above all useful, and this one is noexception. It scans an enormous range of theory and practice withclarity and succinctness ... How far does this book achieve its aimof identifying what psychology can offer to the professions ofsocial work and community work? Social workers will certainly findthis a most convenient source of psychological theories and theirapplications. Sutton has a gift for clear exposition of complextheoretical ideas and explaining their relevance in social workcontexts. Her account of crisis intervention and counselling is oneof the best I have read ... It is certainly a book that wouldjustify its place on any social worker's shelf. I expect to referto it frequently and if a student asks to borrow it I shall adviseher to buy her own copy.
