"Designed to be useful for both researchers and clinicians, this reference work brings together a wide variety of authors to examine how multicultural issues affect assessment in general and several specific subsets of assessment in greater depth. The quality of this reference book is excellent. The authors are all highly competent to write about the subject, and their authority is unquestionable. It is highly recommended."
