The Routledge Handbook of Postcolonial Social Work

'This collection on post-colonial social work from a Southern perspective is an original work on a most important topic. It is a volume that contributes greatly to global transformation in an era when critical thinking is discouraged. It is a must read for social work professionals and students as well as the wider audience engaged with critical development theory and practice. Highly recommended.' - Ronaldo Muck, Professor of Political Sociology, Dublin City University

'This book is timely and a precious gift to all who cherish dignified social and human development. It contains a powerful integrative elucidation of northern and southern philosophies ideas that creates a synthesis supportive of the dialogue of social development in the world. This book should be celebrated by all; students, practitioners, academicians, policy makers and especially the oppressed of the world as it carries a message of hope tinged with the realism that supports the creation of a brave new world for all.' - Lengwe-Katembula J Mwansa (PhD), Professor, University of Botswana, Department of Social work, Gaborone, Botswana
