This important textbook presents a distinctive holistic approach to developing anti-oppressive practice and demonstrates how an understanding of equality and diversity can affect interaction and intervention in a range of health and social care settings, and with a range of service users. Drawing on case studies and practice guidelines, the book proposes a range of strategies for students and professionals that will enable them to develop skills in cultural equality and anti-discrimination and apply them to their everyday practice.

The book begins with an account of the nature of anti-oppressive practice and goes on to explore the core theories, concepts, and strategies of anti-oppressive practice.
