Summary: Back up to catch up: Overcome specialization in Social Work
Review: Holt has put together a solid overview of generalist case management. Although written for graduate students and working professionals, I have used it with independent study and directed reading courses for senior undergraduates planning to enter an MSW program. They have given me positive feedback about the value of this book during their internships in social and human services agencies. A good counterbalance to the over-specialization that hit social work education about 3 decades ago.

Summary: Practice of Generalist Case Management
Review: The Practice of Generalist Case Management is a decent book for one wanting an overview of case management duties. The book is written in text book format, yet lacks some organizational qualities of putting information in hiarchical format to be remembered easily as most text books. I am not saying the book has problems with its organizational structure but for someone new to case management the structure within chapters is a little awkward.

Summary: This book is excellent!
Review: This book provides a very comprehensive overview of the practice of Generalized Case Management. It is written in a very easy to read format, and is loaded with the most up to date information on the field. I highly recommend this book to those entering GCM as well as a great reference for those of us veterans already in the field.
