A definition of social work: A thesis in sociology

In 'A Definition of Social Work: A Thesis in Sociology,' Alice S. Cheyney undertakes a rigorous examination of the foundations and evolution of social work as a distinct professional field. Through a meticulous analysis of sociological theories and practices, Cheyney deftly navigates the complexities surrounding social work, elucidating its integral role in addressing societal issues. Her literary style is characterized by clarity and precision, appealing to both academic and general audiences, while her contextual framework encompasses the socio-economic realities of early 20th century America, providing a historical backdrop that enriches the discourse. Alice S. Cheyney, a prominent figure in early sociological thought, was profoundly influenced by the social upheavals of her time, particularly regarding industrialization and urbanization. Her educational background in sociology and her active involvement in social reform movements informed her perspective, offering both theoretical insights and practical applications. Cheyney'Äôs work reflects a commitment to articulating the purpose and ethics of social work, aiming to elevate the profession's status in the academic and public spheres. For readers seeking a comprehensive understanding of social work's conceptual underpinnings, Cheyney's thesis is an invaluable resource. It not only outlines the ethical and practical dimensions of the field but also serves as a catalyst for discussions about social justice and advocacy. This book is essential for students, practitioners, and scholars alike who wish to engage deeply with the discipline.
