This book by Malcolm Payne offers a critical review of social welfare theory and its values in modern professional practice. The author argues that social practice is stable and based on a practical model with crucial aspects. The importance of these aspects reflects the economic and social forces that influence social welfare, leading to the rise of certain ideas.
