- Summary:
- This book clarifies the distinctions between three key concepts - Anti-Racist Practice (ARP), Anti-Discriminatory Practice(ADP) and Anti-Oppressive Practice (AOP). Critically and constructively analysing these three approaches to practice it reappraises their potential in the light of emerging equality issues in the health service. With contributions from leading teachers and practitioners in the field, "Equalising Opportunities" provides students and practitioners in health and social care with a clear overview of an area where there is much confusion and imperfect understanding.
