"'Analysing Community Work' provided a key text, tackling issues of theory and practice in accessible ways for some two decades. this second edition builds upon the strengths of the first, updating the book to take account of the major changes that have been taking place since then, both in britain and internationally. popples critical consideration of the impacts of globalization, neo-liberalism, changing technologies, increasing inequalities and increasing concerns with environmental issues will be particularly welcomed. this edition will be essential reading for those who read and appreciated the first as well as for a new generation of readers."
Marjorie Mayo, Emeritus Professor of community development, Goldsmiths, University of London, UK
"Popple's book was one of the key overviews of British community work when it first appeared in 1995. In the last few years, the need for a revised and updated version has been increasingly obvious and Popple has now obliged. The last twenty years have seen substantial changes in the political, economic and organisational context within which community work operates and Popple has fully reflected this whilst remaining clear about its basic tenets and goals. This is a highly welcome addition to contemporary community work literature."
Gary Craig, Professor of Community Development and Social Justice, Durham University, UK
