Description and Table of Contents
Description
Understand human behavior with HUMAN BEHAVIOR AND THE SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT! Three key tools are provided for theory-by-theory comprehension-models, metaphors and maps-that help you to easily compare and contrast theories as well as understand their relevance to social work practice. Detailed questions, learning activities, and a comprehensive list of references save you time when you study. Metaphors for each theory bring the content to life and make the applications of ideas and concepts specific to social work and social workers.
