It contains a number of maps, diagrams and illustrations. Among the issues covered are challenges from the state in the form of inquiries, reviews and recent legislative initiatives, including the Children Act and community care legislation. Challenges posed through the criticisms of social workers, users and potential users about the ways in which power and control are exercised in social work are also considered, as are challenges in the social and cultural diversity of needs which social work must meet, including issues of gender, ethnicity, sexuality and disability.

    The book that was shown was not the book that I received. Nonetheless, when I informed the seller that it wasn't the item they advertised-/they were more than willing to make it right. Since they didn't have another copy of the title I was expecting, they promptly issued an apology; and refund full refund. I really appreciated the speed at which they were willing to make things right with this transaction. I will definitely not hesitate to do business with them again. Thank You!
