Embodied Practice: Claiming the Body's Experience, Agency, and Knowledge for Social Work.

Tangenberg, Kathleen M.; Kemp, Susan

Social Work, v47 n1 p9-18 Jan 2002

This article argues for an invigorated, more complex understanding of the body in social work theory, practice, and research. Drawing from scholarship in the humanities, social sciences, and social work, a framework involving three dimensions of the body is proposed for integration with accepted ecological practice models.
