ABOUT THE BOOK
EDITORIAL REVIEW
This widely used clinical reference and text has now been fully revised and expanded, providing the latest knowledge on culturally sensitive practice with families and individuals from over 40 different ethnic groups. Each chapter demonstrates how ethnocultural factors may influence the assumptions of both clients and therapists, the issues people bring to the clinical context, and their resources for coping and problem solving. Updated throughout with essential new material, the third edition includes chapters on several additional groups. An indispensable new appendix offers a concise guide to weaving cultural information into assessment and intervention planning.
USER REVIEWS
"Excellent reference for doctors; clergy; as well as family counselors, therapists and practitioners. The material on individual cultural characteristics and patterns is well written, well organized, and easily accessible. The wide range of contributors represents the top authorities in each area."

"Great resource for anyone involved in counselling someone from an ethnic group other than one's own. The various contributors brought germane observations for each ethnic group. I am a priest who serves many Middle Eastern people. I found the language of this text accessible as a "layperson" to Psychology."

"This book is comprehensive and inclusive of norms and beliefs within and across cultures. The book is quite specific and addresses nuances from different cultures that not only make it interesting to read, but highly applicable in the professional setting. Cultural myths are shattered and/or clarified, lending readers the chance to become aware of their own personal biases. I highly recommend this book!"
