Based on the award-winning Chinese title, this updated English edition presents an in-depth account of the lengthy and often contentious discussions between China and Britain regarding the Hong Kong handover. Drawing on now declassified official government documents, it provides a careful analysis of events from the 1970s to 1997, which shaped Hong Kong’s future.

當前社工教育與實務往往偏重操作技術,許多學生與同工雖熟悉操作步驟,對支撐實務的理論基礎卻未有深入了解,難以敏鋭剖析服務對象的處境。此外,現存教材多植根西方語境,若生硬套用於華人社會中,往往會引發理解偏差,進而削弱介入的專業效能。

本書精選24個核心社會科學理論,專為本地語境量身打造,結合本地文化背景與實務案例(如外傭育兒、華人的家庭觀念),使抽象理論具象化。透過豐富案例與反思性討論,本書能夠協助讀者在具體情境中靈活轉化理論,培養批判思維與反思能力,真正深化專業技能。
