Dr. Barry R. Cournoyer has been a social work practitioner for more than 40 years and a university teacher for more than 35 years. He received his M.S.S.W. degree from the University of Tennessee and the D.S.W. degree from the University of Utah. He is Emeritus Professor with the Indiana University School of Social Work, where he taught for 32 years. A former Associate Dean with the School, he remains interested in student learning assessment and quality improvement activities in social work education. In addition to this eighth edition of THE SOCIAL WORK SKILLS WORKBOOK, he co-authored THE SOCIAL WORK PORTFOLIO and the Seventh Edition of SOCIAL WORK PROCESSES -- all published by Brooks/Cole-Cengage. He also authored THE EVIDENCE-BASED SOCIAL WORK SKILLS BOOK, published by Allyn & Bacon.
"This text is the best that I have observed to date in relationship to the depth of processing of theoretical concepts, the use examples and exercises, and the skill building focus of the book."
"This is an extensive and thorough introductory graduate social work practice text. The inclusion of more extensive case studies showing the treatment process and the use of exercises that require the student to access computer resources will be particularly valuable."
"Its strengths are: clear, simple and reader friendly language; a deliberate effort to address current issues such as practicing in the context of managed care environment and evidence based practice; chapters' summary, relevant exercises; use of technology based resources; numerous examples; an effort to present to reader a comprehensive approach to social work practice as a problem solving process within a systems perspective."
