| book description |

The evidence-based movement is an important force in human services. The highest quality care can be provided to individuals, communities, and society through evidence-based policies and practices. The questions are: ""What is evidence-based practice in human services, and how do you do it?"" This book addresses these questions through the experience and insights of policy-makers, clinicians, researchers, evaluators, and a consumer. The authors of the various chapters come from diverse disciplines: psychology, sociology, social work, evaluation, and public policy.This book covers such topics as the definition and history of evidence-based policy, the federal role, the role of the states, European perspectives, the development of evidence-based programs, a consumer's experience, and problems with the evidence-based approach. This book makes an excellent addition to the libraries of policy-makers, researchers, clinicians, community leaders, evaluators, and anyone else who desires insight into this timely and crucial topic.
