Description

Person and Environment is the first of two paperback volumes comprising Dimensions of Human Behaviour. Elizabeth Hutchinson creates an understanding of person, environment and time which is richly sensitive to difference, diversity and the mission of social work. She provides: an integrated, micro/macro perspective on human behavior, insights into human behaviour from biological psychological and spiritual perspectives, an examination of various human environments, from families to social movements and institutions, narrative chapter openings which give the research a "human face", and implications for social work practice integrated into each chapter. An Instructor's Resource Guide is available for both volumes to adopters who request it on their department's or organization's letterhead.
