Reviews

`I strongly recommend the sections on"family therapy, psychotherapy and reaching out" to all mental health workers dealing with people from different cultural backgrounds' British Medical Journal

`The challenging nature of this book stopped me in my tracks… It is not simply a criticism of Western-style value systems but a pragmatic and constructive guide to good practice…intelligently written, factual and fearless in its honest assessment of the current situation' Nursing Times.

`This is a fascinating array of material written by authors working in the British context…an ideal focus for undergraduate and post-graduate courses dealing with psychology in a multi-ethnic society' - The Psychologist
