5 out of 5 stars Excellent for undecided Social Workers!!!   January 4, 2002
 15 out of 16 found this review helpful

I received this book for Christmas and read it cover to cover by the next day. It gives the reader a large variety of social work careers, beyond the stereotypical case worker. It is incredibly well written and easy to read. A must for anyone thinking of pursuing a social work career!!!


5 out of 5 stars Get an inside look into social work!   September 26, 2001
 11 out of 11 found this review helpful

This is a must-read for anyone exploring a career in social work. It features stories from professionals in a wide range of fields. Seeing it from their perspective gives you an inside look into the different aspects of social work that you will probably not find anywhere else short of actually talking with a social worker. Many tell of the joys and stresses of their jobs. I was hoping to see more entry-level work featured. However, this book gave me some excellent ideas of possible fields to explore should I decide to venture into this rewarding career.


4 out of 5 stars A must for social work students   March 3, 1999
 37 out of 38 found this review helpful

There are at least one or two other books on the market that address a career in social work. . This book is by far the most thorough. As a social work professor, I have shared this book with dozens of students. They have sent their fellow students asking for copies. This book is also excellant for the more mature social work professional who may want to exchange or expand practice settings. The book doesn't contain glossy pictures or fancy tables, but it is written in such a way as to hold the interest of any social worker. The book covers a wide range of information including pros, cons, and salary ranges for various practice settings. Great resource book for the social work library!
