"This is the only book I know of that discusses in depth the problems, solutions, and guidelines for cross-cultural and cross-ethnic genetic counseling in North America. Logical and effective in manner, this text is a substantial contribution to the field and will also be of interest to nurses, social workers, and other health workers involved in genetic counseling." -- James E. Bowman, M.D., University of Chicago
"An excellent addition to the human genetics library. This book should reach not only genetics professionals but all health care providers.... [It] is the first global attempt by several experts from diverse backgrounds to address specific ethnic and cultural beliefs and their implications for genetic services. It is long overdue!" -- Alliance Alert
"The book succeeds in making the reader aware of the ethnic groups that [geneticists] might meet.... If you see this book on your shelf, do pick it up.... You will find the book fascinating." -- Journal of Medical Genetics
While genetic counselors are trained extensively in scientific methods and counseling techniques, they must also prepare themselves for working with clients from a variety of cultural and ethnic backgrounds. In chapters that show professionals how to understand the behavior and decision making of people from diverse cultural and ethnic groups, genetics experts offer insights and information about people who belong to Latin American, African, Native American, Chinese, Japanese, Indian, and Jewish ethnic groups, as well as individuals within the deaf community.
