• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

State of the art empirical knowledge about burnout among social workers is discussed in this comprehensive book. It illustrates and assesses problems with definitions and theoretical orientations to help clarify the overall conceptual vagueness that has plagued burnout research since its beginning. The expert contributors clearly demonstrate the importance of burnout measurement for theory and practice and establish important guidelines for subsequent research and theory development in this area.
