Multicultural Psychology: Understanding Our Diverse Communities
Search in google:
In this thoroughly updated revision of Multicultural Psychology, the authors once again use their own personal stories and experiences along with those of students as a means of entry to scientific and professional writing on multicultural psychology. In doing so, they engage students in the presentation of quantitative and qualitative research on multicultural issues while capturing the richness of diverse cultures. The text focuses on compelling topics such as differences in worldviews and communication; racial/cultural identity development; issues of racism; immigration; and nonracial populations of diversity, such as gender, sexuality, age, and ability. The authors integrate issues specific to populations of diversity throughout the chapters, as opposed to covering such issues in distinct chapters.
