Product Description

Product Description
A revised edition of the best–selling, most widely–used reference on cross–cultural counseling. The third edition is completely revised and updated from the 1990 second edition, which is considered a classic in the field. It is approximately 20% longer than the previous edition. The first third of the book covers general issues in cross–cultural counseling (e.g., differing communication styles, world views, and types of therapy). The second section focuses on counseling special populations (Native Americans, African Americans, Asian Americans, etc.) The final third of the book offers detailed clinical case examples. This section is updated to illustrate the counseling of non–ethnic special populations (e.g., gays and lesbians, the physically–challenged, elderly, etc.)

From the Back Cover
Here is the long–awaited revision of this bestselling reference on multicultural counseling, the most widely used and critically acclaimed text published on the topic. The first book of its kind, Counseling the Culturally Different changed the thinking in multicultural counseling, setting the tone for a whole generation of psychological counselors across America. It has maintained its status as a classic in the field and is now the standard reference for nearly all courses in minority mental health and treatment. This Third Edition is completely revised and updated, continuing the legacy of scholarly excellence combined with a provocative, practice–oriented approach to the field.

Authors Derald Wing Sue and David Sue have reorganized the book to be consistent with new developments in research, theory, and practice. Major additions include a more inclusive definition of multiculturalism, the most recent statistics on the changing complexion of society and the implications for clinical practice, and a discussion of the culture–bound basis of the ACA and APA Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice. The authors continue to use a large number of clinical case studies and real–life examples to illustrate the concepts of multicultural counseling and therapy.

This vital resource also features:

  • New chapters on white racial identity development; non–Western and indigenous methods of healing; and counseling women, gays/lesbians, the physically challenged, and the elderly
  • Expanded coverage of multicultural family counseling/therapy, racial/cultural identity development, and becoming multiculturally competent
  • Individual chapters on counseling African Americans, Asian Americans, Latino/Hispanic Americans, and Native Americans

Combining a sound conceptual framework for multicultural counseling with proven therapeutic methods for specific groups, Counseling the Culturally Different remains the best source of real–world counseling preparation for students and the most enlightened, influential guide for professionals.

5.0 out of 5 stars All counselors and therapists need to read this book., 25 Dec 1998
By A Customer
I understand why some people find this book challenging. It is a clearly different way to think about the counseling and therapy field. Nonetheless....

1. Derald Wing Sue is the most cited multicultural authority in the world.

2. The book reads easily and students like it. I have used it as a text many times.

3. At times, the book is demanding. It attacks our stereotypes. The easy way to deal with this book is to say that it stereotypes itself. Read the book again. It is open and offers multiple ways to think. You and your students will face a challenge, but this is one of those important books that are making an impression in the world.

In short, this is a classic! Buy it!

1.0 out of 5 stars This book doesn't address cultural overlap., 9 Dec 1998
By A Customer
This book has several flaws. First, it perpetuates stereotypes about minority groups. Second, the authors seem to believe there is only one White culture. Third, the catch phrase "culturally different" is problematic. Different from what? White culture? There is no one White culture. Everything that White American culture is draws from other cultures; African, Asian and European. The premise of understanding cultural biases is good, however, the authors fail to present anything other than a superficial, stereotypical analysis of cultural biases in counseling.
