Working with Risk Skills for Contemporary Social Work

"As we would expect from Hazel Kemshall and colleagues, this text conveys complex ideas about risk and danger whilst making them meaningful to social work practitioners struggling to work ethically and proportionately in organizations and systems focused on managing institutional risk and blame." Sue White, University of Birmingham "This new book addresses a high priority aspect of practice for social work in the modern world. Building on professional experience, research and teaching, this book is rooted in practice issues, and it will be valued by social workers in diverse settings to help them reflect on and develop their work in this complex area." Brian Taylor, University of Ulster
