Media Reviews
This has always been my text of choice and this new edition solidifies my belief that it is by far the best and most thorough social work oriented interviewing text available... I am especially impressed by the extended information on listening, non-verbal communication, transitions, the use of interpreters, interpreting the deaf, and interviewing involuntary clients. -- John F. Longres, author of Human Behavior and the Social Environment Adds practical, research based guidelines for interviewing involuntary adults and sexually abused children useful to both the student and the graduate practitioner. -- Ronald H. Rooney, University of Minnesota
