The Oxford Textbook of Palliative Social Work is a comprehensive, evidence-informed text that provides clinicians, researchers, policy-makers, and academics with a broad range of content to inform and enhance palliative social work practice. This definitive resource brings together an array of more than 150 international authors and is edited by three leading palliative social work pioneers to address the needs of professionals providing interprofessional, culturally sensitive, biopsychosocial-spiritual care for patients and families living with serious illness. Social workers from diverse settings will benefit from the historical perspective and international scope as well as the wealth of patient and family narratives. In keeping with the dynamic growth of the field over the last decade, this second edition offers a substantially deeper dive both conceptually and contextually into the more nuanced delivery of palliative social work. This edition includes additional chapters that reflect the increased integration of palliative social work across populations, diagnoses, and settings. Each chapter has been extensively updated integrating current evidence, with a section specifically devoted to interventions for the purpose of affirming the scope of social work palliative practice. A new preface highlights aspects of social-political inequity and injustice that informed the development, process, and ultimate content of this Text. International palliative social work practice is reflected by regional voices and highlighted by an exploration of the unique response to the COVID-19 pandemic as it evolved in their respective countries. Professional issues explore topics of mentoring, supervision, advocacy, leadership, certification, legacy, and resilience.

Reviews for The Oxford Textbook of Palliative Social Work
"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. * Renato V. Samala, MD, MHPE, FACP, FAAHPM Department of Palliative and Supportive Care Cleveland Clinic * 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. * Renato V. Samala, MD, MHPE, FACP, FAAHPM Department of Palliative and Supportive Care Cleveland Clinic * The Oxford Textbook of Palliative Social Work represents an accomplishment warranting our acknowledgment and professional recommendation. * Patricia B. Mullan, School of Medicine, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI, USA, Journal of Cancer Education *"
