Overall an excellent book strongly recommended for most libraries and essential reading for anyone significantly involved in cross-cultural work.' - Clinical Child Psychology and Psychiatry 'I am sure that this is a book which will become required reading for many professionals who work daily with the rich variety of individuals who are collectively labelled 'ethnic minorities'... should be available to all who work with people in a professional/caring capacity.'
