Examines the conflicting demands on, and pressures and criticisms of the social work profession. Among the issues covered are: challenges from above in the form of inquiries, reviews and new legislation; challenges from below by users, potential users and social workers themselves, about the ways in which power and control are exercised in social work; and the social and cultural diversity of needs which social work must meet, including issues of gender, ethnicity, sexuality and disability.
