A guide to writing for human services professionals / Morley D. Glicken.

Glicken, Morley D. (Author).

Summary:

"This is a book to help social work, psychology, counseling, and other human service students and professionals improve their writing. It is written without the use of complicated grammatical terms or complex rules that often confuse and discourage writers. Because it is written specifically for the human services, it contains chapters with examples on how to write student papers, client reports, psychosocial histories, evaluations, professional papers, research reports, papers for mass audiences, requests for funding, letters to the editor, the use of the Internet in helping clients, the privacy rules of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), and the many other uses of writing by professionals."--Jacket.
