Interviewing and Communication in Social WorkAuthor(s): Crispin P. Cross\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: Routledge\nISBN-13: 9781041245353, 978-1041245353\nSynopsis\nInterviewing and communication are central to the work of the social worker, the psychotherapist, and to that of many other specialists, yet little attempt has been made to explore their interrelationship and complexity. First published in 1974, Interviewing and Communication in Social Work discusses the interplay between the two with special reference to social work.\n\nDr Cross draws upon his wealth of experience in the fields of psychology, sociology, and social work in organizing and presenting this volume. The book emphasizes the important role which communication plays in the interviewing process especially, but not only, in social work and shows that there are important sociological and psychological factors involved in that process which require far more attention .
