Tensions between the U.S. and Japan, strife between African-Americans and Koreans, the difficulty urban youth encounter in adapting to a white-collar professional culture--all can be traced, directly or indirectly, to cultural and psychological barriers. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eThe Culture and Psychology Reader\u003c\/b\u003e gathers a wide range of contributors to present a comprehensive guide to the myriad issues at the nexus of culture and psychology. What role have culture, race, and ethnicity assumed--or, rather, been allocated--in American psychology? How do traditionally marginalized groups, such as African-Americans, poor women, lesbians and gays, and bicultural people, perceive themselves and what can this tell us about the interplay between culture and psychology? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Beginning with definitions and an overview, the book examines such issues as development, adaption, the acquisition of culture, the self in a cultural context, and diagnostic assessment and treatment acknowledging the risk of cultural bias. Contributors to this volume include: Clifford Geertz, Richard Shweder, John Ogbu, Laura Brown, Michelle Fine and Adrienne Asch, Cherrie Moraga, June Jordan, Arturo Madrid, Howard Gardner, and Arthur Kleinman.","brand":"New York University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47591638859927,"sku":"9780814730812","price":4432.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780814730812.webp?v=1774973940","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-culture-and-psychology-reader-9780814730812","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
