Introduction

Abstract

International Clinical Sociology presents the art and science of clinical sociologists around the world. This is not the first volume to look at the global development of the specialization. It is, however, the first to present basic clinical sociology diagrams and models as well as detailed histories of clinical sociology in a number of locales and a wide range of interventions discussed in light of a region or country's economic, social, political, or disciplinary history. © 2008 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.
