Books : Social Work and Mental Health (Transforming Social Work Practice) .
Rating: 
- A must for all social workers/students
I had a mental health placement in the second year of my social work degree and knew nothing about mental health issues or services. This book almost single headedly got me through the placement and definatly improved my work with the service users. This book was also on the essential reading list for the third year of my degree at Northumbria University and was well deserving of it's place. It is easy to read and covers all the basic information as well as issues of discrimination, anti oppressive practice and social inclusion. There is also a good debate and discussion around social and medical models of mental distress and treatment. I would strongly recommend this book to all social workers or potential social worker because regardless of your field you will work with mental distress at some point and an understanding will improve the quality of your work with out a doubt.
Rating: - Recommended
This is a very easy-to-read book, the text is set out into clearly defined sections, with easy points of reference. I have found it a very useful social work students guide to mental health, so much so I could hardly put it down, having never thought this way about a text book before, I have a few others in the series all of which are of similar easy reading and layout.
Rating: - Best Mental Health Book I have read!
This book goes into just the right amount of depth in the topics I need to know. It is hands down the best book on mental health that I have read.
