With its broad scope, its sound viewpoint, and its ripened judgment, this book is as valuable to the experienced social worker as to the beginner in the field. The author deals with topics concerning the prerequisites for the social worker, modern social problems and trends, problems of child welfare, human factors in industry and agriculture, community organization, and the rapidly growing city. Originally published in 1926.
