This new and significant book deals with the helping professions in general and social work, in particular. It provides important insights into how helping professional intervention needs to be culturally situated through the unique time and person centred prisms of individual, community and place. As a case study, it focuses on the Bedouin-Arab peoples generally and in the Negev. Practices that are also new to helping professions are discussed in relation to cultural mediation conflict resolution and traditional healing.
