This widely used clinical reference and text has now been fully revised and expanded, providing the latest knowledge on culturally sensitive practice with families and individuals from over 40 different ethnic groups. Each chapter demonstrates how ethnocultural factors may influence the assumptions of both clients and therapists, the issues people bring to the clinical context, and their resources for coping and problem solving. Updated throughout with essential new material, the third edition includes chapters on several additional groups. An indispensable new appendix offers a concise guide to weaving cultural information into assessment and intervention planning.

 Ethnicity & Family Therapy November 10, 2008
McGoldrick promises to provide helpful tips for working with families of different ethnicities/origins, but falls short on delivering. The histories and backgrounds in each chapter are brief and general at best. There is no concrete info provided on counseling families...my advice is to find another textbook because this one doesn't give anything more than the very, very basics.
Ethnicity and Family Therapy 3rd edition Review September 30, 2008
I believe this book is vitally important to anyone in the field of Social Work. I have found it to be extremely helpful in getting to know a little more about some of cultural belief of the client I've been working with. I have also gotten their individual perspectives from just asking them a little about their cultural belief systems as they interupt them for themselves.
Well written, easy to read September 20, 2008
I ordered this book for a class, it is well written. The chapters are grouped by ethnic group which makes for easy navigation. If you are familiar with psychological or counseling terminology it is an easy read as well.
Ethnicity and Family Therapy: Third Edition September 1, 2008
Excellent reference for doctors; clergy; as well as family counselors, therapists and practitioners. The material on individual cultural characteristics and patterns is well written, well organized, and easily accessible. The wide range of contributors represents the top authorities in each area.
Excellent. July 27, 2008
Great resource for anyone involved in counselling someone from an ethnic group other than one's own. The various contributors brought germane observations for each ethnic group. I am a priest who serves many Middle Eastern people. I found the language of this text accessible as a "layperson" to Psychology.
