Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
What we think must inform what we do, argue the editors and authors
of this cutting-edge social work textbook. In this innovative,
expansive and wide-ranging 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. Critical Social Work Praxis is
organized into sixteen sections, each reflecting a critical social
work tradition or approach. Each section has a theory chapter,
which succinctly outlines the tradition's main concepts or tenets,
a praxis chapter, which shows how the theory informs social work
practice, and a commentary chapter, which provides a critical
analysis of the tensions and difficulties of the approach. The text
helps students understand how to extend theory into praxis and
gives instructors critical new tools and discussion ideas. This
book is the result of decades of experience teaching social work
theory and praxis and is a comprehensive teaching and learning tool
for the critical social work classroom.

There is growing international resistance to the oppressiveness of
psychiatry. While previous studies have critiqued psychiatry,
Psychiatry Disrupted goes beyond theorizing what is wrong with it
to theorizing how we might stop it. Introducing readers to the
arguments and rationale for opposing psychiatry, the book combines
perspectives from anti-psychiatry and critical psychiatry activism,
mad activism, antiracist, critical, and radical disability studies,
as well as feminist, Marxist, and anarchist thought. The editors
and contributors are activists and academics - adult education and
social work professors, psychologists, prominent leaders in the
psychiatric survivor movement, and artists - from across Canada,
England, and the United States. From chapters discussing feminist
opposition to the medicalization of human experience, to the links
between psychiatry and neo-liberalism, to internal tensions within
the various movements and different identities from which people
organize, the collection theorizes psychiatry while contributing to
a range of scholarship and presenting a comprehensive overview of
resistance to psychiatry in the academy and in the community.
Contributors include Simon Adam (University of Toronto), Rosemary
Barnes University of Toronto, Peter Beresford (Brunel University),
Bonnie Burstow (University of Toronto), Chris Chapman (York
University), Mark Cresswell (Durham University), Shaindl Diamond
(York University), Chava Finkler (Memorial University), Ambrose
Kirby (therapist in private practice, Brenda A. LeFrancois
(Memorial University of Newfoundland), Mick McKeown (University of
Central Lancashire), Robert Menzies (Simon Fraser University),
China Mills (Oxford University), Tina Minkowitz (World Network of
Users and Survivors of Psychiatry), Ian Parker (University of
Leicester), Susan Schellenberg, Helen Spandler (University of
Central Lancashire), and AJ Withers (York University). A courageous
anthology, Psychiatry Disrupted is a timely work that asks
compelling activist questions that no other book in the field
touches.
