Produktbeschreibung

Latino-Hispanic Liaisons and Visions for Human Behavior in the Social Environment dispels the pervasive historical and contemporary misconceptions and inaccuracies about Latino/Hispanic experiences. It highlights the diversity of clients who are often lumped together under the Latino/Hispanic umbrella, helping you to provide more effective services. You'll find chapters examining the social ecology of Mexican-American child development, discussing caregiver well-being among Cuban and Puerto Rican mothers of mentally retarded adults, analyzing the adjustment process among Cuban refugee families, describing one Southwestern community's efforts to create a multiethnic neighborhood coalition against substance abuse, evaluating a study of changes related to migration, family, and work in Caribbean women's lives, and much more!
