Library Journal Review

This book offers articles to promote cultural sensitivity to minority groupsincluding blacks, Puerto Ricans, Mexican Americans, Native Americans, and Asian Indians. The stancesuggesting empowerment and social justice as well as understandingis peculiar to social work, but the book could be a resource for anyone working with bicultural persons. Similar articles appear in Armando Morales and Bradford W. Sheafor's Social Work (Allyn & Bacon, 1983. 3d ed.), covering Asian Americans, women, the aging, ill, and institutionalized. (The second, smaller part of Race and Ethnicity, about infusing minority content into social work curriculum, will interest only social work educators.)
