'This is a refreshing book from so many angles. I find it engaging
as well as sophisticated in its coverage of ideas and issues
crucial to the average practitioner. It introduces a broad spread
of theories and perspectives in an accessible and meaningful
way.'

'While notions of evidence-based practice and the importance of
research mindedness have moved to the centre of policy, education
and practice in social work, the literature available to help make
sense of and implement these ideas is very limited. Evidence and
Knowledge for Practice makes a huge contribution to filling
that gap. It succeeds in being intellectually rigorous yet
accessible and is an invaluable guide to students, lecturers,
policy-makers and practitioners on how to understand and use
evidence and knowledge in social work.'
Harry Ferguson, University of Nottingham
