The fifth edition of this text contains articles by some 35 experts in the fields of school social work research and practice, plus a new section on related themes of assessment, consultation, teamwork, and planning. There is also a strengthened focus on multicultural assessment, and updated emphasis on the school social worker's program, policy, and practice role in making schools safe.

I like that it is a compilation of multiple research studies. I found it very useful for research and understanding the complexities of the systems we work within.
