The course was hard. Many times I hated not just this book, but life itself. Ripping the hair off my arm seemed more merciful. Frankly this course should be used as a CIA torture device. Or a way to drive people insane. It really is that awful. Unless you are deviant who enjoys intricate things with no right answers just for the sake of fun debate. Blah ha ha. ????????

Either way, don't expect any book on this topic to be a dummy's guide. Stay at a Holiday Inn express. Maybe you'll understand it. This book is likely as good as it's gonna get to simplify this course. My book had about a thousand post its with notes. Why? Well you know the image of a dead horse? Yeah they beat it INTO the ground making explanations. And when you're doing, you're wondering where the day went. I can almost speed read and twenty pages took me two days. That's about a chapter. Why? Well I'd read an except, eat massive chocolates, roam the house like a prison, banged my head, dreamed with my eyes open....

Still, the authors tried. One book. One course... You haven't learned a thing. But you can sit and listen to professors have a discussion and understand 10%. You can read a scholarly article and say, hey, I recall that word. I don't know how the heck they did the math, but I know they have nifty computers to do that quantitative research. Hahahahahaha.

Read it anyway. If you decide you want a DSW, you'll do research til you croak. Or if you desperately want an answer to some complex puzzle, you'll have to align with a senior social worker and do this. You'll only learn this by doing. And even then, a lifetime of doing and you won't perfect it. But you gotta start somewhere.

So yes, I hated this book, mainly because the work was just impossibly hard. But that wasn't the books fault. That was the fault of my hard head, exhaustion and difficult concepts. Now that I'm on the other side, I'll hide the book awhile, forget the agony of it, and enjoy reading scholarly articles with more insight and a frame of reference. I can't judge the authors on the material, only their take on it, and it wasn't bad. I don't know anything about anything still, but I can pretend as if I had stayed at the holiday inn express.

As long as you are told which chapters/pages match up with this, you can use this book instead of the newer edition. Textbook writers often seem so lazy, just mixing up the order o things without significant changes or new information, and this is one of those. It's a pretty solid introductory tool, at least.

Purchased through Amazon because it was much cheaper then the campus bookstore. Needed this text book for my HBSE class. Very interesting and helpful book. Not at all dull like a lot of required text books are. Must buy for social work majors!

I think if someone is just jumping in to the Social Work, this is good to have.

I had the misfortune of having to read this book in a Human Development course. This textbook is wordy, redundant, and overflowing with irrelevant detail. The writing is incomprehensible. There is a crippling lack of focus which defeats the purpose of any text--to guide a student through relevant material. A good editor would have rejected this book outright, or at least have gotten out a big pack of red pens!

The book itself is boring, but the owner cannot change that. I do like how the previous owner already had stuff highlighted, but on one page it had words in highlighter written on it and made it hard to see. It was a great price and good quality, thank you!
