Description

Representing the clinical state of the art in culturally competent assessment and treatment, and providing important information on African Americans, Asian Americans, Latinos/Hispanics, and Native Americans and Alaska Natives, the Clinical Manual of Cultural Psychiatry synthesizes the collected wisdom from the editor's 10 years of teaching cultural psychiatry with the professional experience of seven other contributors in using and teaching about DSM-IV-TR's Outline for Cultural Formulation. In response to the challenge of reducing today's mental health disparities for racial and ethnic minority groups through culturally competent clinical care, training, and research, clinicians must now meet accreditation standards involving cultural competence, making this groundbreaking clinical manual indispensable for mental health care educators, students, residents, and practitioners. The Clinical Manual of Cultural Psychiatry will also prove invaluable for encouraging much-needed research, as we seek to better understand our increasingly diverse -- and ever smaller -- world.
