Social Work with People with Learning Difficulties
Policy Press (Verlag)
978-1-86134-878-4 (ISBN)
Recent years have seen a revolution in the field of working with people who have learning difficulties - both professional understanding and user expectations about services and the ways they are provided have been completely transformed. This book offers up-to-date case studies, examples from practice and points for further reflection.
