A comprehensive guide to relationship-based research in social work, communicating the theory using illustrative case studies and offering a model for practice. At this book's core is the idea of 'practice-near research' - a dynamic approach to research embedded in a practice setting - and relationship-based working. It describes the value of this approach, particularly when embarking upon research relating to human interactions and the views or experiences of service users. It gathers together a range of research projects carried out in Finland, where the concept originated, and in the UK which illustrate how it works in a number of settings. A dynamic text for academics, researchers or managers engaged in practice research. Show more
