Description: "Considering both the traditional American psychology literature as well as the more recent Africentric scholarship, African American Psychology offers comprehensive coverage of the research and theory that have developed over the past two decades. African American Psychology offers a timely broad-based overview of key topics and research specifically relevant to the psychology of African American culture." "Primarily designed as a course textbook for undergraduate and graduate students in Psychology and in Ethnic and Black Studies, African American Psychology is an ideal text for courses such as African American Psychology, Psychology of Ethnic and Racial Minorities, African American Experiences and Behaviors, and Race and Ethnicity. It will also appeal to scholars in the field and to educated readers interested in the psychology of multicultural populations."--Jacket.
