Internationalizing Social Work Education
Though the aims of social work tend to be fairly similar in different contexts around the world, the ways in which social workers are educated and trained vary widely from place to place and nation to nation. This book gathers a dozen interviews with leading social workers and educators from countries including India, the United States, the United Kingdom, Sweden, Mexico, and Switzerland to explore points of similarity and difference and see what lessons we might be able to learn from the successes or limitations of the different approaches.
Revitalising Communities in a Globalising World
Revitalising Communities in a Globalising World explores the opportunities and constraints that the dynamics of globalisation present for human development in a range of different countries and situations.

The idea of communities is deconstructed to show that globalisation has collapsed the boundaries of time, space and place in ways that have exacerbated inequalities, at the same time giving rise to unparalleled riches for some. The book encompasses a number of case studies that speak to policymakers, practitioners, educators and students interested in studying globalisation and making the most of its potential for change.

In a frank epilogue, Ratan Tata talks about the difficulties he f...
Memoir of Professional Social Workers
The ‘Memoir of Professional Social Workers’ is the second volume of the book ‘Work and Life of the Professional Social Worker’ published by the Indian Society of Professional Work (ISPSW) in the year 2022. We hope this will motivate other professional social workers to write about their own life experiences by themselves or someone else whom they know. Their in-depth experience and enriched knowledge will be advantageous for other professional social workers to learn from their life. The current volume two has fifteen scholarly articles from eminent social work professionals (both educators and practitioners) across the country.
