Volum coordonat de George Neamtu si Dumitru Stan Lucrarea ofera suportul epistemologic pentru interventia in principalele zone din asistenta sociala, de interes pentru toti profesionistii din domeniu, in special practicieni. Sint avute in vedere tematici sociale mereu actuale: violenta in familie, reintegrarea sociala a delincventilor, fenomenul de victimizare si interventia asistentiala asupra victimelor, marginalizarea si combaterea acesteia in cazul minoritatilor de orice tip, precum si diversele forme de toxicomanie, cu problemele aferente. Un accent deosebit se pune pe institutia probatiunii in Romania, ca alternativa la sistemul penal clasic, ce si-a dovedit deja limitele atit ca instanta morala, cit si ca resurse umane, financiare etc. Intentia autorilor este de a transpune in practica paradigmele, metodele si tehnicile enuntate, pe baza unui singur principiu: utilitatea lor „clinica” pentru sistemul client.
