Reviews / Votes

'Grounded in the realities of contemporary practice, this much-needed book shows how social workers can enact practical strategies that contribute to progressive social change as well as transform people's lives.' - Bob Pease, Chair of Social Work at Deakin University, Australia 'At a time when social workers are increasingly looking for alternatives to managerialist-driven practice, an alternative perspective is essential. Providing a wealth of ideas for radical social work practice, this book will be essential reading for practitioners and students alike.' - Mark Baldwin, Senior Lecturer in Social Work, University of Bath, UK 'This timely book, with its emphasis on 'the practical and the possible', will help social workers to survive bureaucracy and burn out through creative practice, collective organization and an over-riding commitment to social justice.'- Helga Pile, UNISON National Officer for Social Care
