Book Description | Cross-cultural dialogues on homelessness reveal new insights this groundbreaking book presents compelling narratives and innovative approaches for addressing the psychological traumas that can underlie homelessness and is the first to explore in-depth what the us and uk can learn from one another. Authors focus on understanding and applying the precepts of pretreatment and "psychologically informed environments," as well as effective ways to promote productive dialogue on all levels--with clients, clinicians, advocates, policymakers, researchers, and others. Detailed case studies review and integrate "hands on" practice with appreciative inquiry, open dialogue, and common language construction methods. Edited by jay s. Levy and robin johnson with contributions from john conolly, ray middleton, suzanne quinney, and joe finn. |
Editorial Review | "in cross-cultural dialogues on homelessness, jay levy and co-authors provide the conceptual tools, the hitherto 'missing language', needed by practitioners and policymakers working with excluded individuals. This book has been informed by the authors' practice and should come with a warning: it will revolutionise how you work - irreversibly and, undoubtedly, for the better." -- Clíona ní cheallaigh, mb, mrcp, phd, senior lecturer in medical gerontology, trinity college (dublin) |
