Description:	Of particular importance for this series, the book speaks to a lacuna in current social work practice theory: community change. Much work in this area of macropractice, particularly around ”grassroots” community organizing, has a somewhat dated feel to it, is highly ideological in orientation, or-in the case of many ”generalist” treatments of the topic-suffers from superficiality, particularly in the area of theory and practical application. Set against a context of an often narrowly constructed ”clinical” emphasis in practice education, coupled with social work’s own current rendering of “scientific management”, ”community practice” often takes second or third billing in many professional curricula despite its deep roots in the overall field of social welfare.
