Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Clinical Assessment and Diagnosis in Social Work Practice integrates six different perspectives (the DSM, a critique of the DSM, a risk and resilience biopsychosocial framework, evidence-based practices, measurement tools for assessment and evaluation, and a life-span approach) in order to teach diagnosis with the values and principles of social work practice. A consistent and modular chapter structure enables students to navigate each disorder in a systematic fashion and allows them to make comparisons between disorders. The authors reconstruct in-depth cases to teach students critical thinking in the diagnostic process.
MoreLong description:
In Clinical Assessment and Diagnosis in Social Work Practice, seasoned practitioner-scholars Jacqueline Corcoran and Joseph Walsh provide an in-depth exploration of sixteen major mental disorders that social workers commonly see in practice, including anxiety disorders, depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. They skillfully integrate several perspectives in order to help practitioners meet the challenges they will face in client assessment, and present a risk and resilience framework that helps social workers understand environmental influences on the emergence of mental disorders and the strengths that clients already possess. The authors also catalog the latest evidence-based assessment instruments and treatments for each disorder so that social workers can intervene efficiently and effectively, using the best resources available. Students and practitioners alike will appreciate the wealth of case examples, evidence-based assessment instruments, treatment plans, and new social diversity sections that make this an essential guide to the assessment and diagnostic processes in social work practice.
Overall Quality of text: Very Good. Strengths: effective use of the Strength and Person in Environment Perspective in diagnosis. Very readable particularly for mental health providers and graduate students of psychology and social work practice. I definitely will adopt the fourth Edition of this text
