Abstract
The turn to biographical methods in social science is yielding a rich harvest of research outcomes and invigorating the relationship between policy and partice. This book uses a range of interpretive approaches to reveal the dynamics of service users' and professionals' individual experiences and life-worlds. It shows how biographical methods can improve theoretical understanding of professional practice, as well as enrich the learning and development of professionals, and promote more meaningful and creative practitioner-service user relationships.
