Mental Health Services: The Cross-Cultural Context

by Roger Pedersen and Roger A. Pedersen

This important book suggests a framework for providing culturally different clients with an appropriate and workable mental health service. Working on the assumption that healthy and normal are not the same constructs in all cultures, the authors are dedicated to increasing the visibility of indigenous mental health traditions, and challenging the potential ethnocentrism of many mental health service providers.
