AnnotationThe meaning and usefulness of observation - as derived from the model developed by the Tavistock Clinic - is now playing a central role in social work training. The authors describe what observation should mean in professional practice, its particular usefulness to care management, and its wider application to organisational issues. The points outlined by them in this article are covered in greater depth in their book, "Observation and its application to social work. Rather like breathing", published by Jessica Kingsley, 1998. (RH).
