Description

This bibliography aims to provide a broad yet concise overview of available resources in gerontological social work. Chapters include materials judged by the authors to be most valuable to someone seeking a fundamental knowledge of the field. Thus the volume is not comprehensive, but instead includes those works considered the best resources to consult initially. Materials listed include books, articles, reports, journals, and audio-visual materials. Each entry is matched with a descriptive and evaluative annotation. The book begins with an essay that surveys gerontological social work and discusses the organisation of the volume. The first chapter contains a listing of general works, particularly books and articles that address ageing from a social work perspective. The second chapter contains entries for books and articles related to clinical practice issues. The third chapter, on educational issues, includes books, articles, curriculum modules, reports, and annotated bibliographies. The fourth, on geriatric health services in social work, has entries for books and articles. A fifth chapter, on resource information and materials, provides detailed descriptions of journals, audio-visuals, institutions, and media resource guides.
