Each title in the Allyn & Bacon Johnson & Grant Casebook
Series presents three to four in-depth cases in a different topic
area, prefaced by an introduction to generalist social work
practice. Allyn & Bacon Casebook Series for Substance Abuse,
First Edition by Jerry Johnson and George Grant provides students

social work experience and teaching to create a one-of-a-kind tool
for students to study and analyze how practitioners think about
practice. The authors move beyond the belief that practice involves
finding "correct" interventions to solve client problems,
and instead invite students to review and challenge the work of
others to help them understand what compromises important practice
decision with real clients in real practice settings.
