"The authors have provided a solid resource to the growing database on multicultural psychology. There are two outstanding features of the text that are worth mentioning. First, at the outset of every chapter (except the final chapter), the authors provide a vignette that illustrates practical applications of chapter material. The second major contribution of this book is the “Learning by Doing” exercises . .
“I am most enthusiastic about this book. I designed the course and was thrilled to see that I finally found a good PSYCHOLOGY book with these incredible authors who are so well-respected in their field.”
I chose this book because of its layout, the depth and breadth of its content, and the availability of supplemental resources. It has a comprehensive approach that I think my undergraduate students will enjoy because this is a capstone course.
Covers ethnic groups in the US and it is difficult to find a text such as this.
Covered a wide range of ethnic groups that were relevant for the course. It was less expensive than other options and the text was structured in a way that was easy to read for my students.
This is an interesting an informative boook but is only a small part of the ethnic diversity which I plan to cover, hence its status as supplemental
there are several chapters that suit very well the structure of my course, but the whole book does not cover it well

An easy read and simplified understanding on diversity. Chapt. 5, "Intersecting Identities" gave a very insightful understanding of the many factors that play into one's identity.
Was great book. I could not wait to use it. Was using it as the primary text. However, an insufficient number of students enrolled for the course and the university decided not to offer the course this semester. It may come up later or I may be able to use the book in another course.
