There is nothing like this on the market that focuses on young people as a whole, rather than on sectors of youth (e.g. young offenders, young people in care etc.)
Suitable on a wide range of social work courses, e.g. children and families, drugs and alcohol users, mental health, family support - should be widely marketed.
All social work students will cover young people in some way during their courses.
This fills a distinct gap in the social work student book market: it is aimed at and accessible to students but with a level of sophistication lacking in other very basic books published by Learning Matters.
Praised by reviewers for its emphasis on how to build relationships with young people - not just a list of technical fixes.
Student-friendly features include: chapter summaries, key lessons, boxed case studies and questions to provoke thought.
