ISSUES & ETHICS IN SOCIAL WORK

Critical Social Work Praxis

The Philosophical Foundations of Social Work

Edited by Sobia Shaheen Shaikh, Brenda LeFrançois, and Teresa Macías

Second edition

Frederic G. Reamer

This second edition of The Philosophical Foundations of Social Work is revised and updated throughout to address contemporary challenges. It focuses especially on newer thinking about the role of non-Western philosophical perspectives and the relevance of philosophy to social workers’ commitments to multiculturalism, feminism, and antiracism. $120.00 / £100.00 cloth 978-0-231-20396-8

In this innovative collection, leading social work thinkers engage with social work traditions to bridge social work theory and practice and arrive at social work praxis: a uniting of critical thought and ethical action. Each section covers a critical social work tradition and includes a theory chapter, which succinctly outlines the tradition’s main concepts, and a praxis chapter, which shows how the theory informs social work practice.

Social Work Values and Ethics

Cultivating Professional Resilience in Direct Practice

Fifth edition

A Guide for Human Service Professionals

Frederic G. Reamer

Jason M. Newell

Social Work Values and Ethics is the leading introduction to ethical decision-making and professional conduct. The fifth edition incorporates significant updates to the National Association of Social Workers Code of Ethics and new practice and model regulatory standards used by social service and licensing agencies around the world.

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.
