Rezensionen
"This book makes an extraordinary contribution to social sciences as it highlights the positive side of shame as a health resource; therefore, it is highly recommended to educators at all levels, interculturalists, sociologists, those who work with refugees and migration, as well as psychologists and psychiatrists." (Kiyoko Sueda, Journal of Intercultural Communication, Issue 21, 2018)

"'The aim of this book is to synthesize empirical research-based and theoretical perspectives on shame in various cultural contexts' ... . This book shows us how we can transcend the divide between the pathological side and the positive side for shame. That is why I highly recommend this landmark publication toboth PP researchers and clinicians." (Paul T. P. Wong, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 62 (34), August, 2017)
