SOCIAL WORK AND SOCIAL WORK EDUCATION

This book brings together 13 papers written by the author at different points of time mainly for conferences and seminars. The volume covers various themes in the broad area of social work and social work education. The papers in the area of social work deal with the historical background of social work, the relationship between social work and social structure, and the broader question of what values and attitudes prevail among social workers. There is also a discussion of the role of voluntary action and of government planning as it relates to social activities. The papers in the area of social work education deal with the subjects of recruitment, the relationship between the professional and auxiliary worker, the training of village level workers, and with some of the more urgent problems of social work education at its present stage of development.

Besides the social work groups, the book will equally interest students across social sciences.
