The Capacity for Self Direction, 309-68. Supersedes 245-67 and 182-66 Sara K. Winter. This book explores the human capacity for self direction from multiple angles: from the perspective of individual development theory; from developmental psychology through the lens of social constructionism; from a practical spiritual perspective (including shamanism); and from political philosophy raised by critical theory. Winter's text covers the philosophy of self direction and helps students develop a deep understanding of the discipline's role in changing society. It is intended to be used in the first year of professional graduate study in social work.
