| Sommario/riassunto: | "Caring and Coping" provides a clear and accessible explanation of the history, politics, management, funding and day-to-day work of the social services in Britain. Social care now encompasses a wide range of increasingly specialized professions. This book aims to improve the practitioner's, as well as the general public's, understanding not only of what these various professions do but also what the legal, political, ethical and financial constraints are upon them. |
