Broken-heartedness is caused by lovelessness which in turn becomes a breeding ground for violence and injustice. Broken-heartedness is the child hurt by abuse and unfairness. It is the farmed animal afraid and alone in an abattoir. It is the mental health patient restrained and secluded. It is professional carers being unsafe in trauma-causing workplaces. It is the destroyed forest and the death of a river. Broken-heartedness is the planetary epidemic of our times, and until now, it has gone unnamed.
In this path-breaking book, Dr Dyann Ross shares her personal story interwoven with robust analyses of the causes of broken-heartedness. Evolving from this, she posits her theory - and practice - of love, as an indispensable force for addressing and working with broken-heartedness proven significant from her career as a social worker. She writes that whatever the situation - lovelessness, violence, injustice - the answer is love, and its application is both vital and within reach.
Broken-heartedness is a must-read for any practitioner or interested individual seeking a revolutionary love-based practice.

Social workers are called upon to shift from a human-centric bias to an ecological ethical sensibility by embracing love as integral to their justice mission and by extending the idea of social justice to include environmental and species justice. This book presents the love ethic model as a way to do eco-justice work using public campaigns, research, community arts practice and other nonviolent, direct action strategies.
The model is premised on an active and ongoing commitment to the eco-values of love, eco-justice and nonviolence for the purpose of upholding the public interest. The love ethic model is informed by the stories of eco-activists who used nonviolent actions to address ecological issues such as: pollution; degradation of the environment; exploitation of farm animals; mining industry overriding First Nation Peoples’ land rights; and human health and social costs related to the natural resource industries, private land developments and government infrastructure projects.
Informed by practice insights by activists from a range of eco-justice concerns, this innovative book provides new directions in social work and environmental studies involving transformational change leadership and dialogical group work between interest groups. It should be considered essential reading for social work students, researchers and practitioners as well as eco-activists more generally.
