5.0 out of 5 stars Easy textbook, June 24, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This "textbook" reminds me of middle school! There are very short chapters and short questions at the end of each chapter. These question sheets tear out for turning in. I thought all this info was common sense, and my professor realized how silly this book was 1/2 way through the semester and we stopped using it.

2.0 out of 5 stars The Social Work Practicum, April 8, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Social Work Practicum: A Guide and Workbook for Students (4th Edition) (Paperback)
This workbook needs a new and improved edition. Not a total waste of time. I did learn a little from it. Some of the questions were too complicated for a busy intern to try and find out. Rather unrealistic in some ways. Other questions were good thought provoking questions that caused the intern to have to seek out the answers.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Necessity for the Field, March 4, 2004
I own this book, which I consider an invaluable tool for success in my (BSW) field placement. Unless you're a social work student you don't need the manual so the readership for the work is limited.
However, for those of is who are beginning our social work practicums, this manual is an absolute necessity. I urge you to order your copy immediately!
