| Human Behavior and the Social Environment: Shifting Paradigms in Essential Knowledge for Social Work Practice (4th Edition) by Allyn & Bacon Solid Book |
| Great HBSE Book.... solid social work foundational info and theories brought to light. I would imagine this book is a staple in most Schools of SW. |
| Human Behavior and the Social Environment: Shifting Paradigms in Essential Knowledge for Social Work Practice (4th Edition) by Allyn & Bacon Waste of time and money |
| This is a required text for one of my BSW classes and I wish I hadn't wasted my money purchasing it. The book is not constructed in a clear way, topics run together with no clear transitions, and is poorly written. The author will introduce a theory or define a term by quoting other authors' definitions. Not just one per term, but many for each new term explained. By the time you finish reading that paragraph you have multiple views on a definition, and none of them are clear. I have read over 40 college textbooks and this is by far the worst I have ever had the misfortune to read. The writing style of the author is so atrocious it appears to be a research paper gathered by a fifth-grader! |
| Human Behavior and the Social Environment: Shifting Paradigms in Essential Knowledge for Social Work Practice (4th Edition) by Allyn & Bacon The worst text I had in my entire BSW program |
| This book was extremely difficult to understand. Full of big complicated terms that could have been said in simply easy to understand words. If all my texts had been like this, I'd never have made it through school. Not at all appropriate for undergrad work. It's the only text I sold back, and was glad to get rid of it. A total waste of money. I had to buy another HBSE book just to figure out what this one was trying to say. |
| Human Behavior and the Social Environment: Shifting Paradigms in Essential Knowledge for Social Work Practice (4th Edition) by Allyn & Bacon Talking in Circles |
| This book is as clear as mud. I read this book to better understand alternative paradigms that are all too often missing from others on this subject. Unfortunately, the author focused more on including everyone's perspective than making any idea clear. |

| The book was out of stock and communication was good giving a new date for delivery. The book came faster than expected for the new date. Book was new and arrived fine. |
