Description
Publication in psychotherapy on the historical backgrounds and cultural registers of a variety of ethnic subcultures in the United States. One essay on communicating with Franco Americans, acknowledging traditional familial roles, and understanding cultural trends. From the text: "'Ethnicity and Family Therapy' represents a good beginning in breaking through the barriers toward honest dealing with the psychology of America's still vibrant subcultures. The findings and practices described here are sure to be controversial, especially when our emotions are ignited by what we read about our own group. As a guide to practicing family therapists and to other general readers interested in cultural systems, the material presented here will prove to be endlessly fascinating and eminently useful."
