dc.description	This book is about social work practitioners using available agency data for practice-research purposes. In 2001, I fi rst called this process “Clinical Data-Mining” (CDM). Looking back, my initial experience doing CDM preceded by decades my writing about it as a research method. In fact, it was the basis of my fi rst professional publication. Co-authored with Richard Cloward, “Private Social Welfare’s Disengagement from the Poor” (1965) was, in retrospect, a CDM study and arguably the best paper I ever wrote. Employed as Cloward’s research assistant, I did the drudge work of gathering, sorting, and analyzing available client and service data “mined” from agency archives throughout New York City. Th e central thesis was his, but the empirical evidence I dug up expanded and challenged his thesis in ways neither of us anticipated. Our paper was widely cited and oft en vilifi ed. My career as a social work researcher and critic was launched.	-
