Publisher Description:

This Handbook is the first volume to address the dynamic issues related to sexuality from a social work perspective by providing a comprehensive, current and international overview of issues related to sexuality.

It explains how each issue is important and critically discusses the leading views in the area, providing diverse and inclusive perspectives from leading scholars in the field. Divided into seven parts:

  • Structural Context
  • Sexual Identities
  • Sexuality trough the Lifespan
  • Health, Mental Health, and Sexuality
  • Sexual Health and Well-Being: Pleasure, Desire, and Consent
  • Practice Issues
  • Regulating Sexuality: Historical and Contemporary Legislation

It will be of interest to students, academics, researchers, and practitioners of social work and related health and social care subjects, and is particularly relevant for practice courses as well as courses on Human Growth and Development and Human Behavior in the Social Environment.
