This book is a most welcome addition to the growing literature on sociological practice. There isa wealthofwisdomandexperience reflected in thesechaptersas well as a wide variety ofexamples of sociology in action. Clinical sociology, in its broadest sense, is the application of a sociological perspectivetofacilitatechange. Itspractitionersareprimarilychangeagentsrather than scholars or researchers, and work with a client, be that an individual, family, group, organization, or community. The reappearance and growthofclinical sociology during the past decade is therealizationofavisionofmine, borninthe 1960sand 1970soutofmyangerand frustrationfirst as a graduate studentand then as a professorthatsociologists, unlike their psychological brethren, did not practice what they preached. Persons trainedinotherdisciplineswere practicingclinicalsociology, and those fewsociolo gists who did kept it a secret. The ClinicalSociologyAssociation, which I cofounded in 1978, had itsbegin nings at a roundtable I led at the American Sociological Association meetings in New York in 1976.

Isawsociologygivingup by default a role in change efforts that necessitate the consideration of social systems.Socialworkers, psychologists, politicalscientists, gerontologists, criminolo gists, marriage and family counselors, to name a few, have eagerly gone where we had failed to tread. Practitioners in these fields, as social systems change agents, have carved a niche, often protecting themselves with licensing laws and other restrictions that make entry by sociologists difficult. Thus we are latecomers in a crowded field.
By changing our most important processes and
products, we have already made a big leap forward. This ranges from the
increased use of more sustainable fibers to the use of more
environmentally friendly printing processes to the development of
efficient waste management in our value chain.
