About the Book
Since devolution in 1999, social policy in Scotland has significantly expanded. The Scottish Parliament holds substantial powers in critical areas such as social work, education, health, child care, child protection, law, home affairs, and housing. The presence of a distinct legal tradition in Scotland has led to the development of a unique approach to social work, specifically attuned to the country's needs. However, Scottish social policy and social work practices have often been underrepresented in textbooks.
This innovative text addresses this gap by offering comprehensive coverage of social policy in Scotland and its crucial role in social work, social care, and related fields. It is designed to complement the Honours degree in Social Work (Scottish Executive 2003), making it an essential resource for students, professionals, and academics in health and social care.
