1.Anti-Discriminatory Practice (British Association of Social Workers (BASW) Practical Social Work) (Practical Social Work Series) by: Neil Thompson March 06, 2006

As a first year student we were recommended this book to complete our first assignments. I felt it gave a basic overview of the whole concept and I was not left satisfied. For example the PCS model was explained, however I found I kept going back to the book to try and gain more knowledge on the whole concept of Anti-Discriminatory Practice-that, simply, wasnt there! I feel this book could have been better if it had explored the more in depth concepts behind Anti Discriminatory Practice, althogether it was too general.

This book has more information than expected. Many issues considered to bring theory and practice together.

I was fortunate enough to study this text for my undergraduate degree, I am of German decent but ostensibly English. This text gives a documatary insight into the horror suffered by both Slavonic and Germanic peoples alike. If your looking for the entire documents look elsewhere here the authers present only the pertinent information. However do not presume that this leads in any way to a bias on the authers part, in my opinion they present the subject matter in an impartial light, which perhaps heightens the sense of the tragedy which is told within these pages. A word of caution, the description, particularly those provided by medical witnesses is graphic and not undistubing. I would give all of this series 5 stars however, personal ... Read More:

This is a short, elegant, clear book which is a very good starting point for anyone whose friend or relative is diagnosed with dementia. The author has a wealth of experience with dementia patients and their carers, and immense compassion, and it shows. He gently and simply explains what happens as dementia progresses, and makes sense of behaviour which carers can find incomprehensible. He offers valuable pointers on how to cope with dementia, always focusing on the humanity of the patient, and the importance of their feelings, eg by using touch, tone. A very valuable book.

Whether you are a reader of sociology / disability studies or not, this book offers the most enaging and thought provoking understanding of disability that you will find. Featuring seminal writers such as Mike Oliver, David Hevey ('The Creatures that Time Forgot') and Jenny Morris ('Pride Against Prejudice')'Disabling Barriers' uses the social model of disability to address issues of inequality. Looking at the way in which disabled people are represented in the media (David Hevey) for instance, the authors seek to debate that inaccessible environments and social prejudice's 'disable' people.
