Summary

Social Work: Field of Practice Third edition introduces students to a variety of fields of social work practice which includes Cultural Diversity, Indigenous Australians, Child Protection and Mental Health. It examines emerging fields in order to acknowledge the rich diversity and possibilities of the profession.

The text embraces the principles of social justice and human rights, and covers the issues of relevance to social workers and their clients while discussing how policies influence social work practice.
