Law for Social Work Practice: Working with Vulnerable Adults

by Robert Johns, Andrew Sedgwick

In adopting an innovative case-study approach to social work law and practice, this text fills a genuine need for a book which applies legal knowledge to the practice predicaments social workers face in their daily work. Focusing on an area of law not covered in depth in standard texts currently available, it offers clear and accessible coverage of care in the community and protection of the most vulnerable in our society in a stimulating practice-focused way.
