Summary
"Understanding the meaning of race, ethnicity, and the minority experience is a challenge that requires conceptual and methodological tools. This book is a comprehensive and much needed resource for professionals, scholars, and educators seeking to incorporate diversity into their training or work. It challenges the false notion that diverse ethnic minorities are alike and highlights differences within racial and ethnic minority groups. The book examines common historical experiences as well as differences among ethnic minorities and explores ways such experiences are critical to the teaching, research, and practice of racial and ethnic minority psychology. To punctuate the profound depth of each of the guidelines, well-crafted case studies are provided illustrating the difficult struggles diverse people experience in their daily lives. Through the use of guidelines and narrative, the book presents us with numerous challenges. One challenge most assuredly will press the vigor, intellect, and wit of those bent on advancing an inquiry into intersectional ethnic and racial identity. The book is wonderfully organized and thoughtfully constructed. It is a formative, comprehensive, engaging book that will be a major source for understanding the complexities of establishing progressive guidelines for the practice, teaching, and study of multicultural psychology. With its wealth of interesting material and a clear accommodating style anyone who delves deeply into these chapters will emerge a more informed student, researcher, practitioner, and consumer of psychology."--(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2023 APA, all rights reserved).
