They speak in depth, and with feeling, about their experiences, how downsides and upsides worked together to transform the way they understood themselves, their professional identity, and their practice. Existing literature about critical reflection is reviewed, identifying the details of learning, and pulling no punches in recognising the difficulty and complexity of becoming transformed through this learning process. The editors of this book also contribute their own reflections on learning how to teach critical reflection and include the findings of a research study\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e‘Internationally renowned theoreticians and practitioners Laura Béres and Jan Fook have pulled together a compelling and heartfelt collection of essays that discuss the latest developments in teaching reflective practice. The book is exceptional for its international scope including narratives from the UK, Canada and Australia, and for the inclusion of both educators and students of critical reflective practice. In a field that has been well developed academically it is refreshing to be offered concrete advice and frameworks for practice to help teach critical reflection.’ - \u003ci\u003eKen Moffatt, Professor, School of Social Work and Jack Layton Chair, Faculty of Community Services and Faculty of Arts\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e‘In this fascinating and timely book, Laura Béres and Jan Fook gather a group of colleagues to propose and then explore a newly developed model of critical reflection that integrates different theoretical traditions.
