Author Hilary Weaver provides a fresh new look at diversity by presenting a more historical and sociological perspective that speaks to the evolution of diversity consciousness within social work, which has been built from a variety of disciplines. Weaver provides examples and practice skills for specific populations to help students learn how to apply these concepts and practice in a culturally competent manner.
