Working With Violence by Judith Milner
Assessing and managing violence places a heavy burden on practitioners in social work, criminal justice and health care settings. Milner and Myers examine current explanatory theories of violence and how these influence assessment and intervention. Using case studies and a variety of agency documents, the strengths and weaknesses of these approaches are weighed up and a framework is presented to help workers looking to effect positive change.STEVE MYERS is Director of the Salford Centre for Social Work Research. He has practised as a social worker in youth justice and child protection, and has been involved in research into violence. He is active in exploring the use of solution-focused and narrative approaches in social work contexts.

Previously a lecturer in social work, she now acts as an independent expert, therapist and consultant in child protection, domestic violence and sex offender cases, including anger management programmes, adults and children who have experienced violence, and juvenile sex offenders.
