In this ground breaking book the author, a dyslexic social worker himself, identifies and begins to resolve a considerable ’gap’ in our current understanding of the dyslexic social worker. A postmodernist perspective is applied to examine the subjective experiences of this group by linking coping strategies and reasonable adjustments to identify the implications for practice. The study found that there is a discrepancy between the ’image’ and ’reality’ of support for dyslexic social workers and that the implications for practice can be directly linked to the quality of support provided by the employer and the culture of the organisation. Recommendations with direction to further reading are provided to offer a possible ’way forward’ for all those concerned. This book is an important resource for dyslexic social workers and all those who have contact with this group, specifically practice teachers, lecturers, social work employers and social workers.
