Publisher's Synopsis
This clear and accessible introduction to anti-discriminatory practice in social work covers, in turn, each of the major forms of discrimination. Neil Thompson has written a successful blend of theory and practice which provides a clear framework for understanding the complex range of issues involved, together with practice guidelines for the development of good practice in this vitally important area of social work. The book acts as a foundation for further study and practice development in each of the areas covered - anti-discriminatory practice in relation to sexism, racism, ageism, disablism and so on. An essential text for modern social work.
