Title: Working with linguistically and culturally different children
First published: 1998
Description: "Reflecting ten years of cross-cultural practice and research with children of various linguistic and cultural backgrounds, this volume offers a comprehensive, eclectic approach to assessment, treatment, teaching, consultation, and research with culturally diverse children.

The book's underlying philosophy is that to successfully intervene with a culturally diverse child, a therapist must understand the values and beliefs inherent in the child's cultural upbringing and must utilize intervention strategies that are culturally sensitive. Many strategies and models are described here in enough detail to enable mental health and educational professionals to put them into practice immediately."--BOOK JACKET.
