‘Alcohol, Social Work and Community Care’ examines practices in the assessment and management of alcohol problems within the context of community care development. It considers the role of social workers as providers of both social care and counselling help. It examines a range of different theories and models that can be used in working with those experiencing problems with drink. Considerable attention is given to psychological interventions such as social learning and cognitive behaviour approaches. There are chapters on young people, elderly people, black communities and offenders.
