Unique content includes chapters devoted to 1) spiritual and religious diversity (including Islam), 2) activism and organizational multicultural competence, 3) classism, 4) an overview of the multicultural movement in mental health including past achievements and current controversies, 5) children's issues in a family context, 6) international students and immigrants, and 7) an ecological/contextual approach to assessment and treatment.
