Rezensionen

"This volume brings together scholarship on sexualities and social work, offering a much-needed survey that builds upon strengths, raises questions about liberation, and challenges cis- and heteronormativities. A key reference work, this handbook considers the intersection of sexuality with questions of race, gender, disability, and trans issues and considers vital implications for practice with various service user groups."
Dr Stephen Hicks, Senior Lecturer in Social Work, University of Manchester, UK.

"The International Handbook of Social Work and Sexualities, edited by SJ Dodd is a work of great scope and information. Sexuality has been buried in Social Work discourse, but SJ Dodd and the authors of the 37 chapters in this

text have broken wide open the doors to this sealed sepulchre, and it's about time. What a wonderful, rich, collection covering a wide range of sexuality issues. This should be required reading for all social work students and faculty too."
Gerald P. Mallon, DSW, Julia Lathrop Professor of Child Welfare, Associate Dean for Scholarship and Research, Silberman School of Social Work at Hunter College, New York City, USA.

"This outstanding volume brings together a vast amount of knowledge on social work and sexualities across the lifespan, exploring topics ranging from sexual identities to sexual health and well-being. It provides a wellspring of state-of-the-art thinking, research evidence and practical information that will help students and practitioners develop their skills to work in different areas related to sexuality."
Mónica López López, PhD, Associate Professor, University of Groningen, the Netherlands.
