Editorial Review:
Product Description: The leader in the field of multicultural counseling and therapy, upholding the highest standards of scholarship "This edition adds the latest hot button issues in the multicultural world. The authors have skillfully and sensitively added the latest evidence-based knowledge of critical problems that can surface in counseling/therapy, including 'microaggressions,'interethnic relationships, Middle Eastern issues, and immigration/refugee complexities. Everything you ever wanted to know about multicultural counseling is included in this edition. It continues to be the standard for any mental health professional treating persons from racial/ethnic minority populations....It is authoritative, illuminating, and clinically compelling." -Melba Vasquez, PhD, ABPP Independent Practice, Austin, Texas "This book is the one to read. It has invaluable information that is current, is extremely well written, and stands out from the other books in the field. The book touches the reader on multiple levels, bringing in personal stories, pushing one's thinking, and very clearly linking theory, history, policies, contemporary trends, and practice. Absolutely outstanding-don't miss it!" -Fred Bemak, EdD, Professor and Director of the Diversity Research and Action Center Graduate School of Education, George Mason University Completely updated, the most widely used and critically acclaimed text on multicultural counseling, Counseling the Culturally Diverse: Theory and Practice, Fifth Edition offers students and professionals essential and thought-provoking material on the theory, research, and practice of multicultural counseling. Authors Derald Wing Sue and David Sue-pioneers in this field-define and analyze the meaning of diversity and multiculturalism and include coverage of racial/ethnic minority groups as well as multiracial individuals, women, gays and lesbians, the elderly, and those with disabilities. The Fifth Edition of this classic resource introduces new research and concepts, discusses future directions in the field, and includes updated references. New and important highlights include: * Opening personal narratives in Chapter 1 that present poignant journeys in cultural competence * Cutting-edge material related to the most recent research, theoretical formulations, and practice implications * Discussion of unconscious and subtle manifestations of racial, gender, and sexual orientation bias and discriminationknown as microaggressions * Coverage of social justice counseling * Content on minority group therapists * Attention to counseling and special circumstances involving racial/ethnic populations With its unique conceptual framework for multicultural therapy, Counseling the Culturally Diverse: Theory and Practice, Fifth Edition remains the best source of real-world counseling preparation for students as well as the most enlightened, influential guide for professionals.

Overall I would not recommend this book, particularly since there are others out there that I find more useful and reputable (I definitely recommend Counseling Multicultural and Diverse Populations by Vacc, DeVaney and Brendel). This book is not worthless. Like all multicultural counseling books, it challenges one to introspect and look more deeply into prejudices, biases, stereotypes, etc., that affect the counseling relationship, which is useful. However, the authors (as other reviewers have noted ... Read More

I was shocked by this textbook. Sue makes many blanket statement about the racism of White people with out providing any research to back up his statements. I was also surprised to discover that he cited himself when he made the claim that white people are socialized to be racist. On the other hand this book made me question my own whiteness and the relative ease that I have at making it through life. It also provided further understanding of different cultures and how psychotherapy is viewed in those ... Read More

We are not born racist. Racism is taught by adults, society and the media. My father-in-law and great grandmother grew up in Oklahoma when there were signs that said "No Indians Allowed" even though Native Americans were the original inhabitants and white people were the invaders. If you study the history of the United States, our history is colored by racism against blacks, various European immigrants, Chinese and Japanese immigrants, and the original inhabitants, Native Americans.

I have to read this for a class that just started. So far, it is readable unlike some textbooks. It seems well organized. The subject matter seems to be relevant.

I teach a masters level counseling psychology course. I require this book for my students. I don't require that they agree with it, but I require that they are open enough to reading it and having an intelligent discussion about issues of diversity in therapy. Many of my students will work with clients who are of a different ethnicity than themselves. Although understanding some of the cultural norms of differing populations is important, it is more important that my students are aware of the conscious ... Read More
