A lot of the social work theory taught at university is taken from psychology, law, philosophy, education and even management. These theories attempt to explain human behaviour, relationships and social issues. But the theory we were taught is closely linked to everyday practice. Social work is a helping profession which fundamentally and radically aims to assist the individuals, groups and community to cope with their complex socio-economic psychological problems through enabling themselves so that they can solve their problem by helping themselves. Social work is a concept of the social science of doing well for each other personally as well as collectively. It refers to a collective approach of reducing suffering and disadvantages and increasingly happiness and advantages of the community members with the active participation and involvement of individuals as well as government and Non-government organisation. This book with its rich contents has become a veritable mine of information.
