Anti-Discriminatory Practice: Equality, Diversity and Social Justice

by Neil Thompson

Addressing the common concepts and issues across the various forms of discrimination, this core text from one of Palgrave’s best-selling authors explores the reasons why the development of anti-discriminatory practice is so vital and examines the steps that need to be taken towards constructing a social work practice based on principles of anti-discrimination and the promotion of equality. This is key reading for undergraduate and postgraduate modules on Anti-discriminatory and Anti-oppressive Practice modules on Social Work programmes, as well as Social Work Theory and Social Work Practice modules. Practitioners will also benefit hugely from the experience and expertise of Neil Thompson.

This book caused me to critically analyze some of my beliefs of social work theories. I don't agree with absolutely everything in this book, but it made me think and I'm a better social worker because of it. I especially like the expansion of systems theory into personal, cultural, and social and now our clients and communities are impacted.
