The Spirit of Social Work is a collection of speeches and addresses given by Edward T. Devine, a prominent social worker and advocate for social justice, in 1911. Devine’s speeches cover a wide range of topics related to social work, including the role of social workers in promoting social reform, the importance of education and training for social workers, and the need for collaboration between social workers and other professionals. Devine also addresses specific social issues of his time, such as poverty, child labor, and the treatment of immigrants. Throughout the book, Devine emphasizes the importance of compassion, empathy, and ethical principles in social work practice. The Spirit of Social Work is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of social work and the development of social welfare policies in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
