Recenzii

'The integration of data from many cultures and aid projects, social and cognitive theories, and an emphasis on evaluating cultural assumptions in management and health, will benefit psychologists working in these areas who are interested in both explanations and practical suggestions. I believe that this book will become the standard reference for psychologists, from many different cultural backgrounds, working against poverty or social justice.' - South Pacific Journal of Psychology
