Recenzii
The Oxford Textbook of Palliative Social Work, 2nd Edition was edited by three pillars of palliative social work. Terry Altilio, Shirley Otis-Green, and John Cagle shared decades of distinguished experience in palliative social work practice, education, and research. With this book, the editors did not just intend to impart evidence-based professional knowledge. More importantly, they reiterated how social inequities were faced in the past and how "both seasoned practitioners and fledgling learners" should persist in addressing them.
I seized the opportunity to review this book to know what makes them so good at what they do. After a few page turns, I quickly gleaned that, whether by design or not, the authors aspired to appreciate and inspire, not just educate. Readers will learn the issues that exacerbate the hardships of patient-family units in the midst of serious illness, the interventions necessary to accomplish short- and long-term goals, and the inspiration to conquer adversity, build resilience, and experience joy in helping others.
The Oxford Textbook of Palliative Social Work represents an accomplishment warranting our acknowledgment and professional recommendation.
