Words cannot explain how much joy feel me once I seen this book in my mailbox. It was a great price and the last to ship out of three different ones that I ordered. However it was the FIRST to arrive and not just that, but way before the expected delivery date. The text looks to be in great condition. I am very satisfied!!!

I received my book in the exact time promised and it was and still is in excellent condition. Social Work and Social Welfare is meeting all of my expectations for my current class and assignments. I look forward to ordering more book in the near future.

Arrived on time and was in good condition. But the book is filled with errors, simple factual errors (not talking about theory and opinion) and is one of the least in depth text books I have encountered. How it can be so large and not go into any real depth astonishes me!

I was surprised at the quality of the book, being a rental. I am very pleased.

Wonderful thank you for being available

it was exactly what i wanted

This book is so tedious. Long dry chapters that feel like a punishment to read.Factual errors and victim-blaming too.There has to be a better one on the topic.

Very helpful for future social workers very organized loved this book would recommend it helped me learn more about the career field
