"contains much of what a social worker needs to know about social work and racism today...recommend[ed]...for further reading and discussion at universities as well as by the public." European Journal of Social Work "The book offers ideas and arguments that can contribute to a more critical and reflective stance on race and racism and the beginning of more informed, sensitive, and anti-racist methods of social work practice. Strengths include an excellent glossary of terms and definitions." Choice "The significance of this book is that it reasserts that social work needs to adopt a more radical approach to social work intervention and that this intervention needs to draw on anti-racist theories and practices." Critical and Radical Social Work “The growth of Islamophobia over the past decade alongside the rise of anti-Roma racism and increasing attacks on the idea of multiculturalism make it vital that we revisit and re-assess the role of anti-racist social work in the 21st century. This book makes an invaluable contribution to that re-assessment”. Iain Ferguson, Professor of Social Work and Social Policy, University of the West of Scotland "This book, which is currently needed more than ever, offers a valuable new generation of critical thinking about race, racism and social work. I hope it will help both social workers and those they work with to reverse these damaging times." Professor Peter Beresford, Brunel University
