This book is the fifth in a series of compendia edited by Leon Ginsberg on modern approaches to social work in rural areas. Rural social workers face special problems related to their work locations, such as professional isolation, lack of supervision, the almost inevitable existence of dual relationships, and the different scale and emphases of life in small communities. This highly readable text offers guidance on these and many other issues.
