Create a flyer for "Social Work Research in Practice"

Very accessible, covers all the key concepts in an easy to understand way, and does a great job discussing the politics of research.

A valuable resource for social work students. It addresses key themes within the research and dissertation modules.

Combines research methodology with areas that impact on research such as Anti discriminatory practice and evidence-based practice.

Adopted alongside a range of texts to complement the understanding research in practice module. A wide range of texts are used because this is often a new topic for students so a range of different styles of writing are offered.

This book has allowed me to explore some of the complexities of research in social work practice. It is clearly written and easy to read, even for an amateur researcher. The lay out is accessible but it takes you through complex notions whilst making them easy to understand.

A really thorough, useful update of a classic text

The text is essential for social workers engaging in research, especially for the first time. the case studies are appropriate for the readership, and online material supports the work.

'This is a lucid and an insightful book that the novice and the more established student will find equally thought provoking and engaging. It prepares research-minded social work students and practitioners to stay true to their professional values by becoming critically reflective researchers, able to question and produce knowledge which can help empower the people they serve'

very useful

This is a very fine book. One of the most valuable books on social work research methods to have appeared in recent memory. It is the most valuable addition to the burgeoning literature in the field of social work research. A fine book to read by any serious social work student and practitioner.

A well written book for anyone embarking on Social Work Research in Practice. A must read for Practitioners and students.

I am in a 'funny' position to be a social psychologist teaching Bachelor & Master students in the Department of Social Work, Social Management and Social Policy. Therefore it is a very helpful literature for me and my students to look at research under the perspective of Social Work requirements.
