Dealing with Delinquents
O ovoj e-knjizi
This is essentially a practical book, directed towards all those who came into contact with the problem in every field of social work, and also the interested layperson.
After a concise survey of modern theory on delinquency and discussion on diagnosis, the authors examine in detail the ‘curative’ relationship which plays so vital a part in what they term ‘treatment in the open by social worker’. The specific problems of schools are dealt with and a chapter is devoted to the female delinquent. Interviewing, home-visiting, recording and assessment of cases are fully treated. Today it can be read in its historical context.
