SOCIAL WORK 2020/2021

Letter from the editor: I am pleased to share the 2020/2021 Columbia University Press social work catalog. If I were to pick a theme tying these books together, it would be “social work with the overlooked.” Social workers often serve the least of us, the people left behind or ignored, the ones who suffer in silence. The new books that have debuted this year all bring up the issues of populations that are often at the back of the line. Last year in this same letter, I wrote that in politically precarious times, social workers renew their commitments to the most vulnerable among us. Last year’s books illuminated the immigrant, the refugee, the young inner-city adult, the nonbinary adolescent. This year a new crop of books are concerned with a new set of populations: the military veteran, the Black teenager, the incarcerated older adult, the genderqueer client. In Measuring the Effects of Racism, the psychologists Robert Carter and Alex Pieterse propose an approach to understanding racism that connects particular experiences and incidents with a person’s individual psychological and emotional response. They detail how practitioners can evaluate the specific effects of race-based encounters that produce psychological distress and possibly impairment or trauma. In Sex-Positive Social Work, SJ Dodd, who has taught a human sexuality course within an MSW program for more than twenty years, presents a helpful, practical guide to sex, sexuality, and gender for clinicians and students who want to run an inclusive, understanding practice. In Aging Behind Prison Walls, the social work researchers Tina Maschi and Keith Morgen study one of our criminal justice system’s overlooked populations: incarcerated older adults. Separated from their families and communities despite a low risk of recidivism, incarcerated older adults represent a major social-justice issue—what is it like to spend your sixties, seventies, and eighties in prison? In Psychiatric Casualties, the trauma researchers Mark Russell and Charles Figley illuminate one hundred years of negligence within the U.S. military complex. Again and again, the military has ignored the psychiatric cost of war—all to the detriment of our service members. An invaluable guide to military social workers and anyone who works with veterans. And, lastly, in Downsizing, the gerontologist Dave Ekerdt explores the social and psychological sides of a process that many older adults eventually come to: shedding their possessions. In this charming and sensitive account, Ekerdt explores how the material convoy of one’s possessions accumulates over a life, and what it means to downsize. I hope my enthusiasm for these books comes through—I am proud to have published them. Please don’t hesitate to contact me with questions or ideas for other books that can join their ranks.

Stress, Trauma, and Decision-Making for Social Workers
Cultivating Professional Resilience in Direct Practice A Guide for Human Service Professionals
Cheryl Regehr
Jason M. Newell
Cheryl Regehr explores the intersection among workplace stress, trauma exposure, and professional decision-making for social workers. She weaves together practice experience, research on the impact of stress and trauma on performance in other high-risk professions, and the empirical study of competence and decisionmaking in social work practice.
Overwhelming evidence indicates that new social workers going into child welfare or other trauma-related care encounter emotional challenges. In a textbook that bridges the gap between theoretical and pragmatic approaches, Jason M. Newell provides a solution by conceptualizing self-care as the key to professional resilience.

Migrant Families and Transcultural Dynamics
The Power of Place in Play A Bourdieusian Analysis of Auckland Children's Seasonal Play Practices
Resources, Gender Relations, and Family Structures Edited by Lydia Potts and Ulrike Lingen-Ali
Migration affects migrants’ families and family relations in complex and diverse ways. Family fragmentation lasting for years or even decades and access to citizenship and welfare state resources change concepts of parenting and care as well as gender relations.

Christina R. Ergler
Christina Ergler explores why “play” resonates differently across urban localities and seasons. She draws on Bourdieu’s theory of practice and Gibson’s affordance theory to show that determinants of seasonal outdoor play transcend modifiable barriers such as traffic and unsuitable play spaces, as well as inclement weather. In contrast, seasonal play determinants are grounded in locally constituted beliefs about what is seasonally “appropriate” children’s activity. $55.00 paper 978-3-8376-3671-0 2020 370 pages 43 illus

How “Help to Self-Help” Health Interventions Shape Ageing and Eldercare in Denmark
Aging in Context
Keith A. Anderson, Holly I. Dabelko-Schoeny, and Noelle L. Fields
Amy Clotworthy
Based on 15 months of ethnographic fieldwork in a Danish municipality, Amy Clotworthy describes how both health professionals and elderly citizens negotiate the political discourses about health and aging that frame their relationship. By elucidating some of the conflicts, paradoxes, and negotiations that occur, she provides important insights into the contemporary organization of eldercare.
As older adults and their families opt out of nursing homes, a range of home- and community-based services have risen up to provide care. This book examines existing and emerging models of these services. Emphasizing the multidisciplinary and interprofessional practice approaches used to deliver care, it is an essential learning tool.

Allan Kellehear brings together testimonies of those dying from terminal illness, old age, sudden injury or trauma, acts of war, and the consequences of natural disasters and terrorism.

A longtime practitioner, Dona J. Reese describes the hospice social work role in assessment and intervention with individuals, families, groups, organizations, and the community, while honestly confronting the personal and professional difficulties of such life-changing work.
