'For many readers, especially trainers and educationalists, the thoroughness of this book is likely to be attractive. The added advantage of O'Connor et al's book is that it covers social work for both adults and children. [This book] is likely to appear on many social work reading lists. [It has]… more the potential to provide good learning opportunities for post-qualifying as well as pre-qualifying training' - Health and Social Care in the Community
