Recenzii

"[The authors] make a significant contribution to the exploration of spritiuality in the field of social work... I particularly liked the chapter Communities in Cooperation. This chapter will meet the highest expectations of BSW students; it is clear, readable, interesting, informative and it challenges the stereotypes students may hold of Mennonite culture." -- Jane Birbeck, University College of the Cariboo
