Rezensionen

"Readers will encounter concrete examples that foster a new way of thinking about the social justice issues created because of environmental detachment. The case studies and analysis offer a new approach that may be brand-new to both social work students and practitioners. As issues of the environment continue to grow, this book will be a timely resource that should be in all social work program libraries. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Graduate students, faculty, and professionals." ---B. Ghilardi, Fairfield University, CHOICE Review
