Cultural Diversity - R. Spector

This is an excellent, comprehensive overview of many cultures and serves my need in teaching a unit lecture on Cultural Diversity in Client Care to BSN students in two courses: Health Promotion and Nursing in High Acuity Settings. A text that helps me create case studies of various cultures for critical analysis by the students in Nursing in High Acuity Settings.

Great Informational Book

The chapters are long and detailed and filled with statistics and charts that physically show the information being presented. Overall it is a well put together book that remains uniform throughout.

It is always good to read the text before...

The book is based on some solid quantitative studies and it is important that we read the text first before inclining to accept any particular views invoked by reviews. I suggest that you read the text first and then make your mind based on your reading.
