Recensioner i media

This book makes an important contribution to reconceptualising the theoretical basis for social work. It does so in a respectful, relational manner that builds on the best approaches from the past combined with those from the present, encompassing marginal as well as mainstream voices and in so doing furthers the cause of social justice at the heart of social work.
