4th Edition
Linda May Grobman, ACSW, LSW,
Editor
Spend a day with 58 professional
social workers, each in a different
setting. Take a look at the ups and
downs and ins and outs of their
real-life days in the “trenches” of
social work practice.
This book is the ultimate guide to
social work careers. Whether you
are a social work student, an experienced professional wishing to
make a change in career direction,
or just thinking about going into the field, you will learn valuable
lessons from the experiences described in DAYS IN THE LIVES OF
SOCIAL WORKERS.
The fourth edition of this popular book contains four new chapters,
expanding content on play therapy and bullying, geriatric care management, providing continuing education, and being a leader in the profession. All chapters include “Think About It” discussion questions. The
appendices, which include additional readings, social work organizations,
and Web sites, have been updated, and a new one has been added on
social media, mobile apps, and blogs.
“Everyone who reads this book, whether you’ve spent a lifetime as a
proud social worker, you have received social work services, or you are
just curious about the profession, will gain a new perspective and appreciation for the work of these tireless individuals.”
Elizabeth J. Clark, Executive Director
National Association of Social Workers
“LOVE these books—especially for social work students who want to get a
feel for all the different areas of practice available in our profession!”
Susan Mankita, LCSW
Florida International University
“DAYS IN THE LIVES OF SOCIAL WORKERS was extremely informative
for me. I recommend this book not only to social work majors, but also to
those who don’t exactly know what social workers do.”
Emily C. Christopher, BSW student
“Your fabulous book, DAYS IN THE LIVES OF SOCIAL WORKERS, was
the deciding factor in my choice to start a career in clinical social work.
My sincere thanks!”
Jasmine Thomas, MSW Student, NYU School of Social Work

them packed with information that makes for good test or quiz questions.
The students loved it and I really appreciated the boost in materials.”
