Professionals working with ethnic minority children can find themselves at a loss as to how to understand and meet their needs and how to recognise and accept differences among groups. Offering practical guidelines based on sound research and practice, the book provides a focus on some of the most difficult and topical issues in this field of work. The contributors to this substantially revised edition of an important resource have updated their chapters to reflect developments in the field. Experts from a variety of disciplines, they consider the central importance for professionals of the Lawrence Enquiry, the move to include more public services in the Race Relations Act; increased awareness of institutional racism, and the specific inclusion of ethnic minority children in health improvement programmes. New chapters are included on identity work, mixed race children and their families, refugee children, and the issue of language.
Industry Reviews
'This book should have wide appeal to almost anybody who works with children from ethnic minorities. Overall an excellent book strongly recommended for most libraries and essential reading for anyone significantly involved in cross-cultural work.' - Clinical Child Psychology and Psychiatry 'I am sure that this is a book which will become required reading for many professionals who work daily with the rich variety of individuals who are collectively labelled 'ethnic minorities'... should be available to all who work with people in a professional/caring capacity.'
