Reviews
The content is very readable and engaging and offers a clear resource for community development and social work practitioners, educators and students to explore critical social work practice ... This book should be included in social work courses that offer community development papers and modules and community development courses that wish to explore their relationship with social work ... I highly recommend this work and will be utilising it in the community development papers we teach. * Peter Walker, Community Development Journal, Vol. 51 (3) *
