Wronka, currently professor of social work, Springfield College (Massachusetts) and also principal investigator of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights Project at the Center for Social Change (Brandeis U.), has broad and deep knowledge of his subject. His academic interests have migrated from existential-phenomenological psychology to social policy, and his career has involved substantial participation in community-based as well as international efforts toward social justice. This vigorously written book offers a conceptual framework for human rights policy and practice supported with numerous illustrative examples, for students and professionals involved with health care and services. He lays the groundwork by offering a history of social justice and cross-cultural comparisons, and builds from that foundation to address practical matters: how to function as a health or services provider within systems as they stand, how to deal with system deficiencies and what they do to people, and how to change systems over time.
