    Book SynopsisCultural Heritage and Tourism in Africa examines the multiple and diverse manifestations of cultural heritage-based tourism in Africa from a regional, social science, and sustainability perspective.This book delivers a comprehensive treatise on the interdependent concepts of cultural heritage and tourism. Heritage is one of the most pervasive tourism assets worldwide and lies at the foundations of tourism in many localities, including Africa. However, despite its salience, there has not been a systematic examination of Africa's heritage resources, markets, policies, practices, successes, and challenges in a tourism framework, despite the continent's immense heritage value. This book reviews the different types of heritages that pervade the cultural environment of Africa and comprises its vast heritagescapes. It also examines the increasing potential for the growth of heritage tourism throughout the entire continent.

    Book SynopsisThis revised second edition of Social Work: The Basics is an insightful introduction to the often misrepresented world of social work. This accessible book presents a broad view of contemporary social work, exploring its roots and its possible future. It dispels myths surrounding social work, addresses media debates, and offers a balanced account of what social workers do.Arguing for a social work that is partisan in support of social justice, questions covered include: How did social work arise? How and why do people come into contact with social workers? What are the true aims of social work to help or to control? What is the relationship between social work and social policy? How and why do people become social workers? What's it like to be a social worker? Can social work cross borders? Drawing examples from the full range of social work practice, this book is valuable reading for all individTrade ReviewIn Social Work – The Basics, Mark Doel explores social work from historical, local, and global perspectives, with a keen eye to political context, cultural diversity, and the possibilities for change. In this fascinating second edition, social workers portray their life’s work as objects. Social work is revealed as a profession, a calling, and a career. Lorrie Greenhouse Gardella, Professor of Social Work, Southern Connecticut State University, USA The international dimension of social work is a feature of this book with examples drawn from around the world. This second edition sets social work in a broad political landscape with inclusive and diverse illustrations that engage all readers.Donna Guy, Toi Ohomai Institute of Technology, Aotearoa/NZMark Doel is recognised as a key figure in social work education with his ability to blend theory and practice so effectively. This important text illustrates nicely how well deserved that reputation is. Social work is a highly demanding but rewarding profession. This book serves an important purpose in making sure that newcomers to the profession get off to a good start in terms of rising to the challenges and appreciating the rewards.

    Book SynopsisWorking towards equity of access to higher education remains a fundamental issue of social justice. Despite substantial efforts to redress historical exclusions via a wealth of government and institutional policies, longstanding enrolment patterns persist and new forms of inequality have emerged in a deeply stratified system.Community Matters: The Complex Links Between Community and Young People's Aspirations for Higher Education offers a new lens on equity of access. The policy focus, nationally and globally, on widening participation for under-represented target groups too readily treats such groups as if they have a singular voice, a singular history, and a singular set of concerns. Drawing on the perspectives of Australian school students, their parents/carers, teachers, and a vast array of residents from seven diverse communities, this book uses the lens of community' to reframe inequitable access. It does so by recognising the complex social and cultural forces aTrade Review"This clear and engaging book draws on rich, extensive mixed-methods data to critically interrogate ideas of 'aspiration'. Showing how communities’ matter in complex ways for the possibility and desirability of young people's access to higher education, this is a thoughtful and valuable resource for researchers and policy-makers alike."Professor Louise Archer, Karl Mannheim Professor of Sociology of Education, University College London (UK)"This timely publication draws upon the innovative lens of ‘community’ to unpack the diverse and negotiated ways aspirations play out in young people's lives. If you are passionate about supporting youth in realising their dreams, this book provides insights into the ways community resources can be leveraged to ensure that young people's desired educational and professional futures are both enabled and realised."Professor Sarah O’Shea, Director, National Centre for Student Equity in Higher Education, Curtin University (Australia)Table of Contents1.Introduction 2.

When access to university campuses is not enough: The possibility and desirability of higher education 5.
