'Essentially practical... the structure and layout of the book makes it both an interesting read and a potentially useful handbook.' - Liz Ross, Child and Family Social Work 'A welcome addition to the field of social workers.' - Community Care, 'Essentially practical...the structure and layout of the book makes it both an interesting read and a potentially useful handbook.'-Liz Ross, Child and Family Social Work 'A welcome addition to the field of social workers.'- Community Care, 'An excellent text which is much needed. It reaffirms social work's commitment to empowering communities and the individuals within them, as well as its role in tackling disadvantage - it's good to see poverty put back on the social work agenda! While its primary target is social workers, it will also be good for other workers in care and related fields and anyone working at grass roots in the community.' - Kay Sargent, Department of Policy Studies, University of Bristol

    This delivery was earliest date! Condition, value, quality - all as described. (My mistake was not requiring the publishing date to be 1958. This was 1977.) This IS a Viking Portable Library copy of Dante's Divine Comedy in English, translated by Laurence Binyon, but it is with a cover DIFFERENT from what was shown. The tracking number was listed as from "UPS", but should have been listed as from "USPS." Contact with this seller alleviated tracking issues. I recommend this seller! Thank you!

    I purchased two books from the same seller; both were accurately advertised in product write ups. Seller responded promptly and securely packaged both books for swift arrival. I am very happy with my purchase and highly recommend this seller.

    Arrived 13 days after purchase. Digipak 3 CD came in brown paper packaging coated on the inside. Not much protection for cardboard digipack, somehow it arrived in near perfect condition. Could have used some bubble wrap /sturdy cardboard. Tracking gave no information. Messaged them & they assured me it was on it's way. Location reads Florida. They ship from all over / my package read Jamaica, NY. Got a 3 CD Deluxe Edition in GREAT CONDITION at BARGAIN PRICE ! Nervous ride/Happy ending 😀👍
