Moving from the classroom to the field is often a daunting transition for social work students. In this new edition of their celebrated text, Kelly Ward and Robin Sakina Mama are joined by Natalie Moore-Bembry. They address student fears and concerns with a straightforward, adventure-based instruction method. The book's exercises allow students to become comfortable using vital social work tools and theories outside of the classroom. Emphasis on individual decision-making within group settings fosters independence and confidence in addition to proficient group work and leadership skills. Previous editions of Breaking Out of the Box have been commended for their direct and honest approach to a wide array of concerns shared by social workers and students. The fifth edition returns to this mission with an increased focus on diversity through rituals and a new chapter on cultural competence, new coverage of AI's impact on communications, and a continued emphasis on ethics and human rights.
