This, the first book in the Wiley Series in Culture andProfessional Practice, is designed as a practical guide forprofessionals who work with children from differing culturalbackgrounds. It relates cultural differences in development to theproblems and practice of child care with a special contributionfrom cross-cultural psychology. The book includes the main issueswhich professionals are likely to encounter, for example:
* how individual differences in temperament and behaviour interactwith cultural traditions
* how a sense of mixed identity develops and how this conflictaffects many young people in different cultural settings
* how the anxieties and motivations of children are influenced bytheir cultural backgrounds
The book draws upon a theoretical and research base incross-cultural psychology but presents the issues in practicalterms leading to appropriate action. This book is unique with itsfocus on promoting the well-being of the children and those whocare for them. Theory and practice are combined in a convenientvolume intended for everyday use by professionals in the field,including pre-school teachers, child care workers and psychologistsworking with children and adolescents in multiculturalenvironments. Culture and the Child concludes with a discussion ofthe effects of multicultural interaction and cultural change intothe 21st century.
