Description

There is much talk these days about empowerment, but generally very little by way of practical guidance as to how to put the ideas into practice. By focusing on the key roles of spirituality, meaning and values in practice, this manual offers training resources to help participants make empowerment a reality. Topics include the importance of values, the power of language, finding meaning in life and work, understanding the place of religion and spirituality.

Spirituality, Meaning and Values is part of the Learning from Practice Series. Find out more about the range here.

Authors

Bernard Moss is Professor Emeritus of Social Work Education and Spirituality at Staffordshire University, where he began working with social work students in 1993. His particular teaching interests have focused on communications skills, studies in death, dying and bereavement, and mediation studies. He was formerly Director of the Centre for Spirituality and Health at Staffordshire University, and made significant contributions to debates on this important theme.

Neil Thompson is an independent writer, educator and adviser whose work is rooted in existentialist philosophy. It is this intellectual background, combined with his decades of experience in social work, that has given him not only an interest in spirituality, meaning and values, but also a commitment to promoting best practice in relation to such matters.
