Social Service is a book written by Louis Freeland Post in 1909. It is a comprehensive guide to the field of social work and the role of social workers in society. The book covers a wide range of topics related to social service, including the history and philosophy of social work, the principles of social service, the various types of social work, and the challenges faced by social workers.The book begins by exploring the history of social work, from its origins in the charity work of religious organizations to its development as a profession in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It then delves into the principles of social service, including the importance of empathy, compassion, and social justice in the work of social workers.The book also covers the different types of social work, including child welfare, public health, and community organizing. It provides detailed information on the skills and knowledge required for each type of social work and the challenges that social workers face in each area.In addition to practical advice and guidance, Social Service also includes philosophical reflections on the nature of social work and its place in society. Post argues that social work is not just a profession, but a calling that requires a deep commitment to the well-being of others and a willingness to work for social change.Overall, Social Service is a valuable resource for anyone interested in social work or social justice. It provides a comprehensive overview of the field and offers practical advice for those working in the field.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
