The editors and writers of this book take a stand for liberation health social-work. They find the transformation of the . economy over the last 30 years towards less equality, more poverty, food insecurity and growing incarceration to be unacceptable. Moreover, they advocate the approaches described in th as liberation health social work over current mainstream social work in dealing with these problems. The 12 chapters here, each by a different writer, look at the various angles of this thesis. The collection begins with a description of the model. A white male social worker discusses his difficulties relating to his client's realities. There is consideration of how the model can apply to LGBTQ communities. Other chapters focus on mental health, women survivors of domestic violence, addictive behavior, public housing, hospitals, child protection, African-Americans, and Latinos. There is even a chapter on the upper-middle class and privileged families. Annotation ©2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR ()
