Reviews / Votes
"This is a good source book for those who want to read the latest thinking and research on race, racism, and children. Thus it will primarily appeal to researchers and graduate students." (PsycCRITIQUES, 9/10/08) "The book provides an in-depth, comprehensive, scholarly account of the research and theories in the field. The book will appeal to those who, like the contributors, have specialized interest in the field. For other clinicians who persevere, the book provides useful insights embedded within the larger theoretical context." (Psychiatric Services, September 2008)More details
