Product Description
To help prepare you for the realities of working with clients affected by addictions, this beneficial text provides you with the necessary tools needed to competently translate addictions theory into practice. It offers a thorough examination of a range of models and perspectives for helping, and it encourages critical thinking to best match approaches with clients and situations. Presented in a work-text format, this book is full of cases, exercises, role-plays, and questions to increase your understanding of concepts and application to practice.
This book covers topics from A to Z. It’s like an “everything you ever wanted to know about addictions” manual. I’m going to use it for one of my social work classes. The only problem is that there’s too much material to cover in one semester. The postive side of this is that students can continue to use the manual while they’re in practice.
