Tapping into archival data, the text describes  the evolution of social work practice theories and  techniques, and discusses social welfare policy and social  work practice from the usual "top down" perspective of  elites (policymakers, administrators, academics) while  adding the "bottom up" perspective of service recipients  and social work practitioners.},
